Hi, and welcome to my space! I have been in the mental health field for over 19years. I am so elated to grow alongside you as change is inevitable, so is my desire to evolve. I have a primary focus on Trauma, Self-Injurious behaviors, and Suicidality; but have experience with working with family/ marital issues and those who struggle with depression and anxiety. While these are my focus areas, I am well versed in others as my training within coursework, and direct supervision has given me the opportunity to support many others.

You don’t have to struggle alone, and struggling does not make you a bad mother. You can love your baby deeply and still feel overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected, or unlike yourself. Your experience matters. You deserve a space where you can be honest, feel understood, and receive support without judgment.

Hello! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a graduate of the University of Saint Mary. I provide a supportive, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where adults can feel comfortable exploring what they’re experiencing and working toward interpersonal growth and positive changes they want to see in their life. I assist my clients in prioritizing their current needs, identifying and processing their life stressors, and further developing coping skills so they can better navigate anxiety, depression, identity and self worth struggles, and anything else life might throw a them. I also have significant experience in supporting those with severe and persistent mental illness.
