Great to meet you!

With 20 years of experience as a Licensed Professional Counselor and former Social Worker, I am dedicated to helping women recognize their worth, strengths, and potential. I believe every individual has the capacity to create meaningful and lasting change, regardless of the challenges they face. My passion is walking alongside women on their journey toward healing, personal growth, and resilience.

My approach to therapy

Each counseling session is deisnged to meet your unique needs, goals, and where you are in your journey. There is no one-size-fits-all approach—together, we'll focus on what matters most to you and move at a pace that feels comfortable.

What you can expect from me

Your first counseling session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other in a relaxed, supportive environment. We'll talk about what brings you to counseling, discuss your concerns and goals, and explore how I can best support you. There is no pressure to share everything at once—we'll move at a pace that feels comfortable for you as we begin your journey toward healing and growth.
