Great to meet you!

It brings me great joy to come alongside others in their journey to healing and growth. In my 17 years of clinical work, I have had the privilege of working with clients from all walks of life. Since completing my education at University of Chicago in 2006, I have completed training in and utilized various evidence-based treatment methods: Eye Movement and Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT).

A bit about my approach to therapy

The mission of my practice is to support others in finding freedom from emotional pain and struggle using compassionate, individualized care. My approach to therapy is client-centered and collaborative. My faith in God drives my belief that hope and healing is possible for everyone. I welcome clients who want to integrate their faith with evidence-based treatment in therapy.

What you can expect from our first session

As my client, you will always be in the 'driver's seat.' At a first visit, we will work together to identify your goals for therapy and how to best make those a reality. My hope is for you to leave each session being closer to your stated goals and having strategies that you can use outside of therapy. My hours for sessions are flexible and can be discussed after an initial 15 min consultation.
