Welcome to a journey of self-discovery and healing! I believe that the mind, body, and spirit must work together for us to become our best and most beautiful selves. Sometimes life’s journey can feel like one obstacle after another. We will challenge self-defeating beliefs, unhealthy addictions, and self-defeating patterns of behavior. Depression, anxiety, trauma, etc have a way of interfering with day-to-day living and blocking us from peace and happiness. But there is HOPE. The process of healing can be difficult, so my intent is to walk with my clients through every step on their way to healing. By employing evidence based therapeutic approaches and intervention strategies, my goal is for my clients to become the very best version of themselves!

You may look like you have everything together on the outside while privately feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or uncertain about how to move forward. I work with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, women's issues, life transitions, and LGBTQ+ related concerns. Many of my clients come to therapy during periods of change, loss, self discovery, or emotional distress when the strategies that once worked no longer seem enough. Whether you're struggling with persistent worry, processing difficult experiences, navigating relationship challenges, rebuilding your confidence, or trying to better understand yourself, therapy can provide a space to pause, reflect, and heal. My goal is to help you gain greater clarity, reconnect with your strengths, and create a life that feels more aligned with your values, needs, and sense of purpose.

Nobody comes to therapy because they need someone to tell them to “think positive.” They come because they’re exhausted. Tired of anxiety or trauma calling the shots. Tired of burnout, addiction, or chaotic relationship patterns running the show. Tired of just surviving on autopilot. If you're looking for someone to hand you generic platitudes or passively nod while you vent, I am not your therapist. I work with people who are ready to actually change things. Life is complicated enough; getting real help shouldn’t be. As a dual-licensed therapist (LPC & LCDC), I specialize in complex trauma, ADHD, anxiety, depression, substance abuse, and mood disorders. My approach is straightforward, down-to-earth, and entirely BS-free. We’ll uncover the "why" behind what’s keeping you stuck, but we heavily focus on the "what now" with practical tools you can actually use in real life. I offer direct feedback, honest accountability, and zero clinical fluff. We won't just talk in circles about your past; we’ll untangle the chaos and build concrete strategies so your progress doesn't stay trapped in our sessions. Therapy isn't a quick checkbox or a single-session magic wand. It takes commitment. If you are ready to be called out on the patterns keeping you stuck, roll up your sleeves, and build a life that actually feels like yours, you’ll feel right at home here.

My background covers a wide range of experience working with individuals and groups of all ages, diverse backgrounds and circumstances, and in various professional settings and roles. The professional settings I have experience in range from non-profits, child/family services, crisis intervention, child/youth shelters, psychiatric hospitals, schools, and private counseling. I have worked in many roles as well, including case management, social worker, counselor, teacher, supervisor, director and administrator. The most important thing to know about me is my belief that in all of my experience, the people involved who need help and support are much more capable of handling the issues in their life than they may feel like they are at the time they come to my office. I have worked with children, families, adolescents, and adults and this has always been true. Whatever circumstance or issue causes someone to seek help, my role is to assist that person in finding ways they can handle it and with better results for them and their life. I frequently remind clients that there is one thing that every low point in their life has in common: the low points change, they pass, and things are not always like that. Our job is to move that change in a direction that benefits you and will support you in a brighter future.
