Hi! I am a dynamic and warm mental health provider with over 6 years of experience in trauma-informed care, creative problem-solving and cognitive behavioral therapy. With my many years as a school counselor, I am skilled in crisis intervention, collaboration, prevention planning, and effective communication. My passion and mission is to provide a supportive and safe environment where we work together to unlock hope, change, and growth for your journey in life. I believe laughter is good medicine and hope to provide a space where you can learn to enjoy all parts of the journey! Thank you for your consideration!

Therapy is as essential as going to the doctor, and just like you might need to go to the doctor more than once (depending on health needs), so it is with therapy. No shame should be attached to it, just gratitude that you have found a safe place where you can heal and take care of your mind and heart. My style is friendly, non-judgemental, and a bit informal.

I believe in placing your needs and goals in the forefront of the therapy process, and I am here to provide education, and support throughout it. I will go at your pace and honor what feels comfortable for you while also encouraging you to consider other perspectives that may bring break throughs in your belief systems and habits.
