I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor who believes therapy should be a space where you feel genuinely heard, understood, and accepted. I have over 12 years of experience supporting individuals through a variety of challenges and life experiences. I earned my Master’s degree in Counseling from Radford University in 2012 and have training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), CBT for Anxiety (CBT-A), EMDR, Solution-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness, and Person-Centered Therapy.
I work primarily with adults experiencing anxiety, self-esteem concerns, relationship and communication difficulties, trauma, life transitions, and women’s mental health concerns. I especially enjoy working with individuals navigating burnout and perfectionism, including therapists and other helping professionals who are often accustomed to caring for others. I also enjoy helping clients who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves find greater clarity and meaningful change.
My approach to therapy is eclectic, with a person-centered and trauma-informed foundation. I believe every client is unique, and therapy should be tailored to your individual needs, experiences, and goals. I value building a genuine therapeutic relationship where you feel heard, respected, and comfortable being yourself. I draw from different therapeutic approaches and techniques to help you better understand yourself, work through challenges, and create meaningful change. My goal is to work collaboratively with you in a way that feels supportive, empowering, and at your own pace.
In our first session, we’ll take time to get to know each other, talk about what brought you to therapy, and begin identifying what you would like to work toward. We’ll work together to develop goals that feel meaningful and realistic for you, and those goals can evolve as your needs change. You can expect a supportive and nonjudgmental environment.
