Great to meet you!

I am both a licensed clinical professional counselor and a certified yoga therapist, and I offer a holistic approach that blends traditional talk therapy with yoga therapy, somatic healing, and positive psychology.

My approach to therapy

My approach to counseling is a collaborative journey in discovering and exploring what hinders you from thriving. Together, we will explore your habits, beliefs, and lifestyle, to see what may keep you from feeling the joy and peace you deserve. We will explore various healing solutions, practices, practitioners, and supports, and I will help you tap into your own power to transform and heal.

What you can expect from me

I specialize in individual and couples counseling with a particular focus on relationship/communication issues, anxiety, depression, and trauma.

I am a Gottman Level 2 Couples Therapist and trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) for trauma. I am pursuing a doctorate in counselor education and supervision at National Louis University.
