Great to meet you!

As a board-certified Licensed Professional Counselor, I am passionate about helping people prioritize their mental health and navigate life's challenges. I understand that seeking support can be a difficult step, so I commend you for taking this important first move. With over 11 years in education, I bring a wealth of experience to my practice.

My approach to therapy

I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and women of all ages, creating a compassionate and supportive space where clients can explore, grow, and heal. I believe every person’s story is unique and deserves an individualized approach tailored to their needs and goals. Together, we’ll build a collaborative partnership to navigate your challenges, celebrate your strengths, and empower you to move toward positive change.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, we’ll take the time to explore your story and identify what you hope to achieve in therapy, working together to define meaningful goals. My priority is to create a warm, supportive environment where you feel comfortable sharing, being vulnerable, and truly heard. As we continue, we’ll collaborate to turn those goals into reality, focusing on growth, healing, and the tools you need to navigate life’s challenges with confidence.
