I began my journey to private practice working in a school setting with students while also conducting monthly family sessions with them and their families. I enjoyed working on communication strategies and parenting skills. As my experience and career have grown I better understand how anxiety can be debilitating and new ways to help clients using CBT skills. I chose to complete a certification in grief therapy as I believe loss and grief is the basis for why people seek out a therapist. I enjoy helping people walk on their path of discovery and understanding themselves.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Our first session will consist of conducting an assessment that covers your thoughts on why you are seeking therapy, other modalities you have experienced, what worked and what didn’t. We will cover family history and discuss current symptoms.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My greatest strength as a provider is my ability to listen and empathize. I have raised 3 adult children and been a military wife for 20 years. I am well versed in life transitions and coping skills from personal experiences.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I enjoy working with clients that are open to the process of self reflection and self discovery.
