Great to meet you!

As a Master's level licensed therapist, I have a passion for helping people who are struggling with relationships, grief, and past hurt. In my practice, I work with individuals that are motivated to make meaningful and lasting change toward living their best life.

I also work with pre-marital couples that want to begin their lives together with the confidence of knowing each other intimately and profoundly.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I approach therapy as a partnership of trust. I'm on this journey with you, meeting you wherever you are and helping you to find healing in a safe and open environment. I have extensive experience in several treatment modalities that are evidenced-based. A treatment plan will be created uniquely for you based upon your goals in therapy; focusing on removing barriers and expanding those strengths you hold within you.

What you can expect from our first session

Our work together will help you gain insight to the barriers in creating healthy relationships, communication, empowerment, and that inner peace you are looking for in your life. I will help you identify new ways of navigating the challenges you face and perceptions that have proven to be ineffective in the past and help you discover wholeness.
