Great to meet you!

I am a dedicated counselor specializing in helping teens (15+) and adults of all ages navigate life's challenges with resilience and clarity while pursuing their full potential. With a focus on supporting athletes, including individuals with disabilities, particularly those who have experienced spinal cord injuries, I offer a safe, empathetic space for healing and growth as well as empowerment to chase your dreams.

My approach to therapy

Utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as my primary approach in combination with my life experience as an athlete with a disability, I guide clients in identifying and reshaping unhelpful thought patterns that may hinder progress, empowering them to build confidence and achieve their goals.

What you can expect from me

Whether you're an athlete overcoming setbacks, a person adjusting to life with a disability, or someone seeking guidance through difficult transitions, I provide a supportive and empowering space for growth tailored to your unique needs. Let's work together to turn obstacles into opportunities for growth while pursuing a fulfilled, balanced life.

Show up ready to work. Get real results.
