Struggling with mental health or addiction? Let's talk.

My education has consistently been geared toward my goal of humbly understanding the human experience.

Prior to licensure in 2019, I held over 14 years of human-service work experience. I am dedicated to creating and maintaining an atmosphere of respect and acceptance.

I am an experienced psychotherapist in private practice for 15 years. I provide couples, family and individual therapy. As a couples therapist, I see couples that have destructive unhealthy and ineffective commuication patterns. Their inability to communicate effectively will lead to further deterioration with unresolved conflicts in their relationship, I also work with individual's who experience Anxiety, and depression. Sometimes, we just don't know why you feel sad, depressed or out of sorts

With over 20 years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I bring a warm, welcoming, and down-to-earth approach to therapy. I’m outgoing and easy to talk to, yet also introspective, which helps us explore deeper emotions and patterns in a way that feels natural and supportive. I specialize in substance use disorders as well as mental health conditions such as depression and bipolar disorder, and I blend empathy with practical, evidence-based tools to help clients feel understood and empowered. My goal is to create a safe space where you can grow, heal, and move toward meaningful, lasting change at your own pace.

Generous, Dependable, Supportive, Kindhearted, Insightful, assertive, courageous, bold, compassionate

"Support for the woman who constantly cares for others. If you feel overwhelmed and stretched thin, I’m here to help you regain your balance and well-being."

My calling to this work comes from my own experience of holding everything in, carrying the weight of caring for others, and hiding my own exhaustion. For a long time, I understood what it meant to keep going even when I needed a break, to put others' needs before my own, and to believe I had to handle everything on my own.

Through my own growth and continued practice, I have learned the importance of self-care, self-compassion, and giving myself permission to slow down. I've learned that asking for help is not a sign of weakness, and that taking a break does not mean I'm falling behind.

These experiences have deepened my passion for helping other women who find themselves caught in the same cycle of giving, doing, and carrying-while quietly putting their own needs last. I believe you can care deeply for the people you love without losing yourself in the process.
