My first career includes 17 years of retail management. I worked in multiple divisions, environments, and roles within the retail management industry. Most of my experiences were in the Big-Box retail environments or within the corporate office environment, so I understand the expectations and stressors of P&L management, marketing, staff performance/recruitment/training & development, shrinkage, O.S.H.A. compliance, and merchandising. I transitioned from the retail management industry to the human services industry in March of 2010 after receiving my master’s degree in Human Services with a specialty in Mental Health Counseling. This information is pertinent for adults who need assistance to cope with work-life balance, corporate industry standards, stressful work environments, conflict management with co-workers, and work performance due to compassion fatigue or inappropriate time management.

Hey there – I'm so glad you found your way here. If you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck in old patterns, or just a little disconnected from yourself lately—you’re not alone. Showing up (even just browsing for a therapist) is a powerful first step, and I’m here to meet you with compassion, curiosity, and zero judgment. I'm a therapist who gets sensitive souls and deep feelers—especially young adults navigating anxiety, burnout, grief, complicated family dynamics, and all the messy parts of growing into yourself. If you’re craving stronger boundaries, more self-trust, or just want to feel like you again, you’re in the right place. My approach is rooted in mindfulness, self-compassion, and a trauma-informed lens. That means we’ll go at your pace, honor your lived experiences, and make space for real, sustainable healing—not just a quick fix. Therapy doesn’t have to feel clinical or heavy all the time. It can also be empowering, affirming, even a little lighthearted. Together, we’ll untangle what’s been holding you back, gently shift what no longer fits, and help you reconnect with the version of you that feels grounded, confident, and more at home in your own life. You don’t have to go it alone. I’m here to walk alongside you.
