I am a dedicated and compassionate counselor with a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree from Concordia University Wisconsin. I have experience working in substance abuse treatment, as well as providing individual and group therapy in both mental health clinic settings and public schools.

My clinical background includes supporting clients in diverse environments, where I have provided mental health services to individuals, adolescents, and groups. I am experienced in addressing substance use challenges alongside a range of mental health concerns.

My approach integrates evidence-based practices, including Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I strive to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered.

Therapy isn't about fixing who you are. It's about understanding what's getting in your way. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, men's issues, or simply feeling stuck, we'll work together to identify patterns that are no longer serving you, build on your strengths, and create meaningful change that extends beyond our sessions.

With nearly a decade of experience working with adolescents and adults, I believe therapy should be practical, collaborative, and focused on helping you move forward. My goal isn't simply to help you feel better during our sessions, but to help you build the confidence, perspective, and practical tools you can use in everyday life. Whether you're navigating depression, trauma, relationship challenges, family conflict, grief, men's issues, or a major life transition, I'll help you better understand what's keeping you stuck while creating realistic strategies that support lasting growth.

If you're reading this, there is a chance that you need an outlet, a safe space, as you're carrying more than you allow others to see. Is it worsening depression, anxiety, intrusive thoughts, or stress? Maybe life itself has become exhausting, relationships feel harder than they should, or you're navigating seasons of change that has left you lost, disconnected, or uncertain. Whatever it is, I offer a safe space with warmth and compassion with the ease of not having to figure it out alone.

You deserve a chance to heal, persevere, and overcome obstacles that hinder you from your best self. One of bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story, truth, no matter how it looks. I look forward to being apart of your journey.
