Hello, and welcome to my page! I am so glad you made it here!

​

A little about me: I have been in practice since September 2019; working with a variety of clients. I have a Master of Arts in Counseling with a dual focus in Individual and Family therapy. I enjoy working with couples, families, and individuals in my private practice. My hours are limited to nights and weekends as I do work in the community at a 9-5 job. You could say this is my "side gig", but I do try to balance the two. While I enjoy doing therapy, I also enjoy and value my time off. During that time I tend to relax, spend time with friends and family, play with my two cats, and have quality time with my partner. 

​

A little about my work: I have experience working with a variety of clients including families, individuals, couples, and groups. The majority of my experience is with individuals and families with a significant amount of my work with families being focused on supporting families with concerns about their teens behavior. 

​

I believe the therapeutic alliance is a conduit for connection and growth and thus, place this first and foremost in my approach to therapy. Through our connection, my clients will find a space to reflect and challenge themselves to accomplish what they want in life and their relationships. It is my intent to help my clients recognize their strengths and find solutions for their challenges. 

​

What makes me unique is that I bring my authentic self to every session.
