I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 4 years of experience working with outpatient mental health settings. I support adults, children, couples, and seniors navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, and grief. Many of the individuals I have worked with felt emotionally uncertain about their future and are looking for tools to promote healing and build interpersonal relationships to move forward on their personal journey.

I earned my master's degree in social work from Walden University. I adhere to evidence-based practices, including cognitive behavioral therapy, play therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and trauma therapy. I take a collaborative approach to identifying challenges and finding solutions to current life circumstances.

I am committed to providing a safe, compassionate space for you to explore your emotions as you navigate life's challenges, and I look forward to supporting you on your wellness journey.

“In any given moment we have two options: to step forward into growth or to step back into safety” (Abraham Maslow). Sometimes what feels safe, comfortable, and familiar, is actually unhealthy; change can be hard and the unknown scary. Do you feel stuck, repeating toxic patterns or negative thinking? Have life events or stress become overwhelming or seem unmanageable? Maybe you just need a supportive space to talk about what you’re going through and how you are feeling.

I am a Resident in Counseling with 2 years of experience in the mental health field. I work with individuals, couples, and families, supporting them through identity development, life transitions, trauma, and grief. I also have experience with ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression, and anger management. My goal is to provide a safe, compassionate space where clients feel supported and empowered to reach their goals.

I received my Master of Arts in Counseling from Eastern Mennonite University, where I trained to work with diverse populations. I use approaches such as expressive arts, emotion-focused therapy, person-centered work, and dialectal behavior therapy. I tailor each session to meet my clients’ needs and honor their unique stories.

I believe that everyone has the ability to change and grow. My role is to walk alongside clients, meeting them wherever they are in their journey, and help them make empowered changes in their lives. I strive to support people through whatever challenges life may bring, ensuring they never have to face those challenges alone.
