Great to meet you!

Whitney has experience in ministry, recovery programs, and other settings. Since beginning her counseling career, she has worked with a variety of clients from children/adolescent to adults. Whitney is passionate about helping clients who are healing from trauma. She loves working with teens and young adults in transitional seasons or those facing overwhelming situations. She also finds joy in walking with those who may be navigating difficult family circumstances.

A bit about my approach to therapy

As a counselor Whitney believes everyone deserves a space that fosters healing and the opportunity for growth. She believes the client knows their story best, and with a little help sorting out the pieces they can begin to understand more about themselves.

What you can expect from our first session

A goal with every client is to provide a welcoming, safe environment where they can feel comfortable and begin working to become healthier and happier. Wherever a client may be in their journey, Whitney considers it a privilege to walk beside them.
