My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable and non-judgmental environment that allows people to heal, grow and make positive change in their lives. I strongly believe in the healing power of therapy. I can help you identify the barriers that are getting in your way and provide the tools needed to overcome them.
I specialize in improving the lives of teens, young adults, adults and families. I have experience with depression, anxiety, eating disorders, body image, trauma, self-esteem, relationships, parenting, and social skills development.

I am passionate about helping others thrive, not just survive, on their journey. I have a special interest in family of origin issues, pre-marriage counseling, divorce, remarriage, blended families, and codependency issues. I also specialize in grief counseling, life transitions, career development, and spiritual concerns.
I am trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I work with individual adults using a systemic, strengths-based, positive, solution-focused, integrative approach. For clients who are interested, I also provide Prepare/Enrich Relationship and CliftonStrengths assessments.

I started my doctoral program in 2000 and could not wait to get through the boring assessment classes so I could start learning about therapy. I mean, really, what can a bunch of numbers and inkblots tell you about a person? Much to my surprise, those early courses piqued my curiosity and the practice of doing evaluations made me a true believer. Hearing clients say things like, “Wow! It makes so much sense now!” or “I didn’t realize I was doing that” is a powerful and humbling experience. Today, assessment is one of my passions because I see how it changes people’s lives for the better.
My approach to assessment is collaborative, which means building a relationship with you to ensure the experience and results are meaningful. Depending on what you are looking for, test results can range from determining a correct diagnosis to providing valuable information about personal motivations and capacities.
Together we develop an assessment plan, engage in the work, discuss the results, and figure out how it fits into your life. Final reports are a combination of your personal insight and my professional experience.

It can be exhausting to spend so much time thinking about what you should be doing differently while feeling unsure how to make things change. Maybe anxiety is taking up more space, conflict in your relationships keeps repeating, or you’re harder on yourself than you would be to someone you care about. Therapy gives us a chance to slow down and look at what’s happening when you feel stuck. Rather than pushing feelings aside or trying to fix them right away, we can listen to what they’re trying to tell us and use that understanding to create meaningful change.
I work with adults and young adults navigating anxiety, self-esteem concerns, relationship challenges, social anxiety, blended family dynamics, and religious trauma. My approach tends to draw from mindfulness, emotionally focused therapy (EFT), and internal family systems (IFS).
But often, what seems to be even more important than the approach we use is the relationship we build along the way. I want therapy to be a place where you feel comfortable being yourself, feel understood, and can make sense of what you’re going through.

I believe that building a solid relationship is a key component of a positive therapy experience. I use a person-centered approach to create a safe, inclusive, and welcoming environment for each person to share their unique story with me. I work regularly with the LGBTQAI community and feel strongly about keeping this a safe space for all.
I have a passion for working with college students/young adults, helping you to work through life transitions, and better understand yourself and others. Through my sex therapy certification, I am constantly working towards destigmatizing sex and the like topics.
People universally want to feel heard, understood, and seen, and I aim to provide this for each person.

I deeply value the therapeutic process. My approach is to meet you where you are at and walk with you as you make changes in your personal life journey to restore wellness. My clinical work encompasses an evidence- and strengths-based approach in collaboration with your unique perspective, identities, lived experiences, wisdom, and history. I strive to create a nonjudgmental, safe, supportive and authentic therapeutic environment while supporting you as you create positive changes and move towards personal goals.
I’ve worked in a variety of mental health settings, which include residential treatment, community mental health and college counseling. I am passionate about working with people that identify as LGBTQ+, BIPOC, Transgender and Non-Binary.
I am also earning a doctoral degree in Counseling Psychology and have developed a love for psychological assessment. Similar to therapy, I have a collaborative approach to testing. This means your thoughts and opinions are just as important as my training in testing.

Therapy can be a space for deep healing, and it starts with feeling safe, seen, and supported. If you're navigating relationships, healing from trauma, or managing long-standing patterns rooted in attachment wounds, you don’t have to do it alone. I offer a grounded, compassionate space to help you process the past and reconnect with your strength in the present. My training includes EMDR, somatic, energy psychology, and cognitive-behavioral tools to help rewire thought patterns and support the nervous system in releasing stored emotional pain, often leading to long-lasting, transformational change.
Healing doesn't have to be rushed. My approach is calm, collaborative, and deeply respectful of your pace. Whether you are carrying trauma in your body or feel like life is just "too much", let’s see together how we can help you get on an easier, happier road.

I have a true passion for helping people of all ages build on their inner strengths and break free from negative thought and behavior patterns that get in the way of living a healthy balanced life. I use an integrative framework, drawing from EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and other treatment approaches, tailored to meet each person where they are in their own unique journey towards growth and healing.
I work with ages 18 and up, and have a special interest in anxiety disorders, grief, and trauma treatment. My top priority is to ensure effective therapeutic treatment, while providing a compassionate, trusting, and non-judgmental environment for everyone.
