My journey to becoming a therapist began with my own therapy that I received as a youth and young adult; it was life-changing. I worked with a therapist that was completely accepting and non-judgmental of my faults/shortcomings and helped me work past and accept them. Because of this experience, I wanted to give back and provide the same nonjudgment safe space, and acceptance to others.

My dream client is a high-functioning woman who appears to be managing it all—but inside, she’s carrying the weight of anxiety, pressure, and deep emotional overwhelm. She might be navigating a major life transition like divorce, a career pivot, motherhood, fertility challenges, or menopause.

She could be facing workplace discrimination, identity shifts, or silently asking, “When is it my turn to exhale?” I work best with women who are insightful, motivated for change, and ready to explore the roots of their stress—not just cope, but understand. Using an integrative blend of CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, and psychodynamic therapy, I offer a collaborative, empowering space where clients can slow down, reflect, and build tools for realignment—emotionally, mentally, and authentically. certified MENOPAUSE COACH

I integrate various therapeutic modalities that meet you where you are. I’m honored to work with you and I’m passionate about helping others. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Ordained Minister and Pastoral Counselor. *Please note that I require a free 15 minute consultation prior to our first appointment. I will reach out to you to provide you the consultation and to set up the first appointment as my schedule here on Grow therapy changes rapidly and may not reflect my true availability. I will work with you to find an appointment that works for us both.
