Great to meet you!

I hold a Master’s degree in Psychology and a Master’s degree in Addiction Counseling from Grand Canyon University, and I am trauma-certified. My areas of focus include neurodivergence, trauma, grief and loss, and substance use disorders. I am passionate about supporting individuals as they navigate the complexities of their experiences, better understand themselves, develop healthy coping strategies, and build lives that feel more balanced, connected, and fulfilling.

My professional work is deeply informed by both my education and my personal journey. As a mother of two children with special needs, the daughter of a cancer warrior, and the wife of a military veteran, I have a personal understanding of the complexities of caregiving, resilience, uncertainty, and the many ways life can challenge us. These experiences have strengthened my appreciation for the individuality of each person’s journey and the importance of approaching every client with empathy, patience, and an open heart.

My approach to therapy

I focus on helping individuals heal and process through trauma, substance abuse, grief, and feeling stuck in an unhealthy cycle. I offer a personalized approach to all of my clients with a nonjudgmental, warm, but transparent space to process, rebuild, enhance, and explore you exactly where you are today. I am trauma certified therefore using a lot of trauma informed approaches.

What you can expect from me

There truly is something for everyone. Whether someone is six or sixty, therapy is about finding connection, not perfection. At the heart of every session I offer are empathy, compassion, and meaningful connection. My goal is to help clients recognize their own growth, rediscover their strengths, and understand that their potential is limitless.
