Background & Experience

I am a Licensed Associate Counselor with a Master’s degree in School Counseling and an Advanced Graduate Certificate in Mental Health. My professional journey includes more than ten years of supporting adolescents in school settings, along with clinical experience providing therapy to both adolescents and adults.

From an early age, I knew I was called to a helping profession. That sense of purpose has only deepened through my work as a therapist, where I have the privilege of walking alongside individuals as they navigate life’s challenges and discover new possibilities for growth and healing.

I have experience working with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship concerns, and challenges related to self-esteem and self-advocacy. My approach is grounded in person-centered therapy, honoring each client’s unique story while creating a space where they feel seen, heard, and empowered to move forward at their own pace.

It is a privilege to earn the trust of those I serve. I consider it an honor to support each client’s journey toward greater self-understanding, resilience, and a life that feels more authentic and fulfilling.

How We'll Work Together

Therapy is a partnership, and we’ll move through the process together. I take a holistic approach, tailoring each session to your unique experiences, strengths, and goals while creating a space where you feel supported to explore whatever is on your heart and mind.

Our conversations will be thoughtful, intentional, and guided by what matters most to you. At times, we’ll celebrate moments of clarity and progress; at other times, we’ll slow down, sit with difficult emotions, and gently work through challenges with curiosity and compassion.

As your therapist, I’ll provide guidance, encouragement, and evidence-based tools while respecting that you are the expert on your own life. Together, we’ll work toward meaningful change that feels authentic, sustainable, and true to who you are.

Who I Work Best With

I work best with individuals who are ready to meet themselves with honesty, curiosity, and compassion, even if they’re not quite sure where to begin. Whether you’re seeking greater clarity, navigating a difficult season, or longing to feel more aligned with the life you want to live, I’ll meet you exactly where you are.

Together, we’ll embrace the challenges that naturally arise along the healing process, recognizing them as opportunities for meaningful growth, deeper self-understanding, and lasting change.
