Hi, I’m glad you’re here and taking this step toward finding the right support. Choosing a therapist is an important decision, and I hope this helps you get a sense of whether I might be a good fit for you.
I bring over 20 years of experience working in the mental health field and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Maine and West Virginia. I earned my undergraduate degree from West Virginia University and completed my master’s degree at the University of Denver.
Throughout my career, I’ve worked with youth and adults navigating trauma, grief and loss, and major life transitions. These experiences have shaped my belief that healing looks different for everyone, and that therapy works best when it’s collaborative, respectful, and paced to your needs.
No matter what brings you to therapy, my goal is to support you in creating meaningful change and moving toward the life you want—together.

I have always wanted to help people and have been happy to lend an ear or a shoulder to anyone in my path who has ever wanted or needed that. Since adolescence I have been a natural therapist to those around me working my way to where I am now, and I couldn't be happier doing this work. We all need someone to talk to who can help us navigate some of life's challenges. Sometimes we are lucky enough to have a friend or loved one who can give us what we need, but sometimes we need a different perspective or a neutral ear. It is important to know that you don't have to do it alone. If you are feeling overwhelmed by life or struggling to work through some difficulties on your own, support is a helpful and a good thing to seek and accept. I work with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. My goal is to provide an overall experience where you feel comfortable, welcomed and supported in this part of the journey.
I use a trauma-informed connection and compassion focused, client lead, strengths based, talk therapy approach. I incorporate evidence based modalities such as, cognitive behavioral therapy, DBT, narrative therapy, motivational interviewing, mindfulness, relaxation techniques and structured grief work. Come as you are, I will affirm you and support you in being your most authentic self.
The healing journey is personal, non-linear and can feel overwhelming. One of my favorite quotes about therapy is “Therapy is a gift. It is a chance to finally be heard, understood and supported.” If you are ready to take this step and gift this to yourself, I am ready to unconditionally hear and hold your experiences with you on this journey.

I am a compassionate and passionate therapist dedicated to creating a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard, understood, and cared for. I provide empathy, active listening, reassurance, and comfort, helping clients feel grounded as they navigate life’s challenges. My practice is centered on the belief that healing begins with connection and that even small steps forward can lead to meaningful change.
My practice, “A Talk Today, A Change Tomorrow,” reflects my belief that it only takes a few intentional conversations to begin creating a brighter tomorrow. While change may not happen overnight, each session builds on the last bringing greater clarity, healing, and growth. Every talk is a step forward, moving clients closer to lasting change, one day at a time.

What happens during the first therapy session?
What happens during the first therapy session?
Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
