Therapy is a space where you should feel heard, understood, and supported—not judged.

You don't have to have everything figured out before starting therapy.

Having worked in myriad settings already since getting my LSW in 2018, and having been in helping professions since age 19, the reason I still love this line of work is due to the change one can bring to people's Worlds, in a way they may have never thought possible.

I'm a bit of a ball of chaos—in the best way. I laugh loudly, I'm human first, and I believe therapy doesn't have to feel cold or overly clinical. My office is a place where you can show up exactly as you are, messy parts included. The best part of this job isn't giving advice or having all the answers. It's getting to sit beside someone as they do the hard work of healing. Nothing compares to the moment when a client looks back and says, "Remember when I couldn't even imagine getting through that?" and realizes how far they've come. Being invited into that journey is something I never take for granted.
