Therapy should feel like a space where you can finally exhale. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I help individuals navigate anxiety, trauma, and mood disorders. I assist couples and families with communication and relationship challenges. I do this rooted in honesty, compassion, and practical support.

Hello and welcome.

I’m a licensed therapist with over 10 years of experience supporting individuals, couples, and families across a range of settings—including colleges, group practices, healthcare systems, and now in my private practice. My clinical foundation includes seven years of graduate training (MS and PhD), and I began my career as a social worker in non-profit LGBT health and hospital inpatient care.

I specialize in trauma-informed care and work with people navigating depression, anxiety, and overwhelming stress.

I typically work with clients long-term, building a therapeutic relationship grounded in warmth, honesty, and trust. I’m easy to talk to, and I invite collaboration and transparency in every session—believing that healing happens when people feel safe, understood, and empowered.

I work with children and teens (ages 7+), young adults, adults, couples, families, and relationship partners. Whether you're seeking support for yourself or navigating challenges in your relationships, I’m here to help you move toward a more connected and fulfilling life.

I received my Bachelor’s (BA)in Criminal Justice (with a minor in Psychology) and Master’s degree in Counseling (MA) from Central Michigan University. After graduation, I started working with Community Mental Health, where I expanded my trainings and certifications. Since working with CMH I have been able to work with a large population of individuals with different challenges such as substance use, bereavement, trauma, domestic violence, family matters, and life goals. I am certified in DBT and DBT PE. I specialize in Behavioral Health, Personality Disorders, and Trauma Therapy. I have experience working with all ages from school age to geriatric clients.

I believe that the stories we tell ourselves about who we are hold incredible power—and that sometimes, the most courageous thing we can do is rewrite those stories with a pen dipped in kindness. My work is deeply rooted in mindfulness and self-compassion frameworks. I don't view therapy as a process of 'fixing' what is broken, but rather as an invitation to meet yourself right where you are. cultivate a genuine, lasting friendship with yourself.
