Great to meet you!

I attended UW Milwaukee for my Bachelors and Masters degree. I have been a practicing Liscensed Professional Counselor for the last 17 years. I am currently focusing on adults of any age with mood disorders and anxiety disorders.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I use a person centered approach, incorporating self-compassion. I will challenge ways of thinking that are making it harder to achieve your goals.

What you can expect from our first session

You are the expert on your life. You will set your own goals for what you want to achieve in therapy. I will guide you through sticking points and encourage you along the way. Having a non-judgmental perspective, I will help you to problem solve a create a tool box for you to use to help you through the various struggles that life presents us all.
