My path to becoming a therapist has been shaped by many years of caring for others. Before becoming a licensed professional counselor, I spent ten years as a critical care nurse and fifteen years as an educator—experiences that taught me the importance of compassion, resilience, and truly meeting people where they are.

I specialize in working with adults and couples navigating life's challenges, transitions, and relationships. I support clients experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, loss, and major life changes, with a particular passion for helping women through infertility, pregnancy, postpartum concerns, perimenopause, menopause, and other women's mental health experiences. I also enjoy working with men as they navigate trauma, the transition to parenthood, supporting a partner through pregnancy or postpartum, medical challenges, and other significant life changes. My background in critical care provides a unique understanding of the emotional impact of illness, caregiving, and health-related transitions.

My goal is to create a safe, compassionate space where you feel seen, heard, and understood. Using a person-centered approach, I collaborate with each client to develop a personalized path toward healing and growth that honors their story, strengths, and values.

I believe meaningful change happens through a strong therapeutic relationship built on trust, empathy, authenticity, and acceptance. I am an EMDR therapist and have advanced training in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples, allowing me to support individuals and couples through evidence-based approaches tailored to their needs. I also incorporate mindfulness and other therapeutic approaches to help clients build awareness, manage stress, process difficult experiences, and develop emotional resilience.

Whether you are facing a difficult season, feeling stuck, or seeking personal growth, I would be honored to walk alongside you. Therapy is a collaborative journey, and I believe it has the power to foster healing, strengthen relationships, and create meaningful change.
