Great to meet you!

As a therapist, I will create a safe and supportive environment as we travel this road together. Together we can work as you create an understanding of yourself and equip you with the tools to accomplish your goals. Healing is not linear and I will work with you to navigate your path to recovery, understanding, and self-love.

I utilize several different approaches depending on your goals and experiences.

In my spare time, I enjoy living and learning in the Appalachian Mountains.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I utilize several different approaches depending on your goals and experiences. Some of these are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Mindfulness. Some areas that I feel most passionate about are working with those experiencing addiction, postpartum experiences, depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, attention-deficit disorder, and psychosis.

What you can expect from our first session

I work to create a holistic approach to therapy. Understanding that "healing in not linear"
