Great to meet you!

I truly care for all of my clients and work diligently to help find them the answers they seek. I have worked with a variety of patients dealing with circumstances that are unique to their lives. I've been in the mental health field for 11 years. Since then, I have gained a wealth of experience serving clients in outpatient settings, Family Preservation Services for CPS, Hospital social work, crisis centers, and inpatient psychiatric units. I have been practicing private practice therapy for over 3 years.

A little bit about me: I live on a small farm with 30 chickens, goats, horses, and a few other animals. Caring for them is a big part of my own self-care—it gives me a chance to slow down, stay present, and recharge outside of work.

My approach to therapy

I typically rely on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Person-Centered Therapy to help my clients gain insight and the tools to improve their overall mental health. I view every client as an individual, with their own unique point of view. I love teaching and practicing coping skills with people, and I work to help clients become more self-resilient.

What you can expect from me

Perhaps you're feeling a bit down or anxious - maybe you're unsure about the future of a relationship, or just feel that you aren't living the life you were meant to lead. Whatever your needs may be, I am here to offer support. Therapy is a process of growth and self-discovery, and in my sessions, I promote behavioral transformation by encouraging a positive outlook and the adoption of new attitudes and reactions. I have the tools and professional experience to help you get back on track.
