As a counselor, I am passionate about providing a safe and comfortable environment for my clients so that they feel seen, heard, and cared for. I believe that healing occurs in the context of relationships; I care deeply about my clients and desire to build a strong therapeutic relationship with each person I have the honor to work with. Having walked through my own journey of counseling, I know what it’s like to take the scary step of pursuing help and healing and the freedom that can come from it.
Many of my clients come to me saying, “I just don’t feel like myself” or “something needs to change.” They are having trouble getting out of bed, they have lost interest in the things they used to enjoy and many times they feel overwhelmed and anxious and they are needing relief. I offer a safe place to explore and discover what is causing such pain and I walk with my clients towards healing, wholeness, and freedom.
I greatly enjoy working with children, teens, and young adults. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, gender identity and self-esteem/self-worth. I am here to help you begin your healing journey or to continue the work you’ve already started. This is my passion and I look forward to discovering your story with you.
I received my Bachelor’s in Psychology at Saint Leo University and Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Reformed Theological Seminary. Outside of counseling, I enjoy spending time in nature with my two Goldendoodles, Huckleberry and Finn.
