Throughout our therapeutic journey, I invite you to join me in growing and learning about yourself within the safe space we create together. With my client centered approach, you will always be the priority in our work together. My goal is to be genuine and honest with you at all times. Throughout my career and personal life, I have discovered that my heart is centered in working with young adults navigating career choices, the anxiety of the transition to adulthood and building healthy relationships; as well as guiding parents through the challenges of parenthood, pregnancy and postpartum. My experience as a school counselor for 6 years was the foundation for my love of young adulthood and the challenges faced in those times that aren’t spoken of enough. Now, as a mom of two young children I found a second passion of supporting individuals through parenthood, pregnancy and postpartum. I have found the most success for my clients utilizing cognitive-behavior therapy, mindfulness and meditation. These techniques increase gentleness, grounding, and relaxation. We often find ourselves needing a reminder to remain present in the moment as life around us moves so quickly. Combining these practices with learning to maintain positive thoughts and supporting stress management will be groundbreaking for your self development. I am so excited to meet you and begin your growth journey today.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session together we will review the assessments and intake questions. It will be a space for me to get to know you and for you to share your goals in treatment. You will have the opportunity to express your concerns and feel heard.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

As a Licensed Therapist, I am here for you in your journey as a judgement free listener. I actively listen while allowing you the space to feel your emotions. Through validation of your feelings, I will empower you to try new strategies and work towards your treatment goals.
