Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Sheboygan, WI


I’m a licensed therapist with experience in both hospital and outpatient settings, working with individuals navigating mood challenges, anxiety, life transitions, and the everyday weight that can come with trying to hold everything together.

I approach therapy as a collaborative and honest space where you don’t have to filter or perform. I’ll meet you where you are, while also helping you gently look at patterns, emotions, and experiences that may be keeping you stuck. I value real conversations, consistency, and creating an environment where you feel understood, supported, and able to show up fully as yourself.

My goal is to help you build insight, feel more grounded, and move toward a life that feels more manageable, aligned, and genuinely yours.

Therapist

I specialize in helping individuals navigate the overwhelming waves of anxiety, depression, everyday stress management, and the deep complexities of grief or loss. Together, we will also use a supportive, trauma-informed lens to safely process PTSD and find healthier paths through substance use and addiction. My ultimate goal is to walk alongside you with an open heart and compassionate perspective.

I show up as a genuine, non‐judgmental person first and a clinician second. My passion for this work comes from having someone who once offered me the space to talk, heal, and grow—and I believe everyone deserves that same space.

Maybe you’re functioning on the outside, but internally you feel overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or unsure of what comes next. You may be struggling with anxiety, ADHD, relationships, grief, trauma, or a major transition and wondering why the things that used to work no longer do. I work with teens 13+ and adults who are ready to better understand themselves and make meaningful changes. As a Licensed Professional Counselor with six years of experience, I offer an affirming space where you can be honest without judgment. Whether you’re working through a difficult season or simply want to feel more like yourself again, we’ll focus on what matters most to you.
