I’ve spent my career supporting people through some of their hardest moments—crisis units, inpatient care, disability rehabilitation, and corporate healthcare. Being a foster parent gave me a firsthand view of how families cope under intense strain. As a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Rehabilitation Counselor, I specialize in the mental‐health impact of chronic illness, disability, and identity shifts. I believe people are more resilient than they realize, and the right support helps them access it.

Hi there! I am glad we have crossed paths, and am here to help you navigate through life's challenges. Maybe you're dealing with relationship issues, a life transition, self-esteem issues, grief & loss, or simply trying to find yourself. If you're feeling confused and overwhelmed with emotion, deciding to meet with a therapist can be the first step toward relief.

I have nearly 20 years of experience helping people find answers to the difficulties they face. I believe you are the expert as it relates to your symptoms and your life experiences. My role is to collaborate with you, offer guidance and insight, and work together with you toward your goals. Ultimately, I feel it is most important that there is a strong rapport between you and me, and that you feel comfortable in an easygoing, non-judgmental atmosphere. I would love to have the opportunity to help you tap into your strengths, and discover the personal peace and fulfillment we all want out of life. Let's Do This!

I'm a therapist, a mom, and someone who genuinely loves the community I live in. Outside of my practice, you'll find me at local events, volunteering, and spending time with my family. That grounding shapes how I show up in session: warm, real, and without judgment. I work with people navigating anxiety, ADHD, OCD, bipolar disorder, depression, trauma, grief, anger, stress, questions of identity, and relationship struggles. Whatever you bring in, my goal is for you to feel heard and taken seriously.
