I’m so glad you are here.
As we navigate through the journey of life, we all have the same goal of finding wholeness and joy. At times, our path may bring us to dark places, leading us to feel stuck and overwhelmed by the anxiety, trauma, and grief we are facing. It is my honor to walk beside you on this journey towards healing and growth. My approach is grounded in empathy and collaboration, and seeks to uncover your strengths as you move closer towards who you are meant to be. The first step towards therapy can be daunting, but you are not in this alone.
I love working with teen girls and women who are navigating anxiety, OCD, depression, relationship struggles, and major life transitions.
I also incorporate EMDR therapy to help clients work through difficult experiences, better understand themselves, and move forward without feeling so weighed down by the past.
I am passionate about mental health and working with you to become the person you want to be.
In our sessions, you can expect a warm, compassionate environment where your experiences are honored and validated without judgement. I aim to provide practical tools and insights to help you regain control and find peace, beginning in the very first session. We can address the issues that are keeping you from the path you want to be on. You’re almost there!

A little more personal
What are things you like to do for fun?
At home I’m either needlepointing or playing with my dogs! I also love pickleball and pilates.
What's something you're irrationally passionate about?
I have become obsessed with needlepoint and cross stitch over the past year. I went from my first ever project to a completed Christmas stocking in six months (but don’t look to closely, I didn’t say I finished ALL my projects).
What's your most embarrassing comfort TV show?
Schitt’s Creek
What's your most irrational beef with an inanimate object?
Appliances that beep or flash colors instead of using words. Why should I have to get out the manual to figure out what’s wrong?
If you could permanently eliminate one adult responsibility, what would it be?
Dishes. Unfortunately, my husband feels the same way.
What's one piece of advice you give clients that you sometimes need to remind yourself of?
The importance of self-care! It’s so easy to let the day pass by and not do anything to take care of yourself. Something as simple as a walk or a cup of coffee can go a long way!
What's one thing you hope clients feel after meeting you?
Hopeful! That first session can feel so uncertain. I hope that my clients feel heard, and hopeful that we can work through whatever brings them in.
