Everyone has a story and sometimes parts of that story can feel heavy, confusing, or overwhelming. I became a therapist because I believe every person’s story deserves to be heard, understood, and worked through with others. Whether you're navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, past trauma, or major life transitions, you don’t have to figure it out alone. I work with both adolescents and adults to create a supportive space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to make meaningful change.

Life is full of wonderful moments and overwhelming challenges. As a licensed clinical social worker, I strive to provide support through all of life’s moments. You may be having overwhelming thoughts that feel out of control or feel frozen in social situations. Maybe you’re waking up in the morning already exhausted from everything you're carrying. Perhaps you’re feeling disconnected from the people around you. Or maybe you’ve been through unbelievably challenging experiences that you’re ready to start healing from. Whatever it may be, I’m dedicated to providing an open, safe environment to help you create lasting positive change.

With more than 25 years of clinical counseling experience, I bring a compassionate, empowering approach to therapy. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, wife, mother, grandmother, and Elder in my church, my perspective is shaped by a deep respect for the many seasons and challenges of life. I believe every person has strength, dignity, and the capacity to heal. My guiding phrase, “He Restoreth My Soul,” reflects my belief that healing involves the whole person—mind, will, and emotions—and can help restore identity, purpose, and resilience.
