I became a counselor because it is my true calling. I believe in the power of healing relationships and the human capacity for growth—even in the face of pain. I’ve seen how emotional wounds, when left unspoken, can quietly shape the way we see ourselves and others. I was drawn to this work out of a desire to create spaces where people feel truly seen, supported, and empowered to make meaningful change. It is a profound privilege to walk alongside clients as they reclaim their voice, deepen their self-understanding, and move toward a more authentic and connected life.

I work best with individuals who are ready to explore the impact of their past and are seeking more authentic, grounded ways of relating to themselves and others. Many of my clients carry trauma, anxiety, shame, or self-doubt and are longing for greater peace, confidence, and connection. I especially enjoy working with young adults, parents, and those navigating life transitions or relational challenges. My ideal clients are curious about their inner world and open to doing the deep, sometimes difficult work of healing. I offer a warm, nonjudgmental space where we can work together toward meaningful and lasting growth.

I’m most excited to work with clients who are ready to engage in honest self-reflection and are seeking deeper healing and personal growth. I’m especially drawn to working with individuals who feel stuck in cycles of shame, anxiety, or emotional disconnection and who long for more freedom, authenticity, and connection in their lives. Whether it’s navigating past trauma, shifting negative self-beliefs, or improving relationships, I find it deeply meaningful to support clients as they reclaim their voice and build a more compassionate relationship with themselves.

One thing I wish all clients knew is that they have dignity—simply because they exist. No amount of pain, struggle, or past experience can take that away. Every person is worthy of respect, care, and compassion. You don’t have to earn your worth; it’s already there. Therapy is one place where you get to rediscover that truth and begin to live from it.

I chose to practice at Thriveworks because they value both client care and clinician well-being. Their supportive infrastructure allows me to focus on providing high-quality therapy without being overwhelmed by administrative demands. Thriveworks fosters a healthy work-life balance, which ultimately helps me show up more fully for my clients. I appreciate being part of a practice that understands the importance of sustainability in this work—for both clients and clinicians.

I am inspired by the sense of grace and love that nurtures my family and me. That presence reminds me of the inherent dignity in every person and sustains us through life’s challenges. I’m also moved by the courage clients show as they confront hard truths and embrace healing—it’s a true privilege to witness their growth.

I cherish time with my family, faith, and friends, and I recharge by exploring the great outdoors—hiking to covered bridges, chasing waterfalls, and soaking in mountain vistas.
