I know how important it is to feel safe, understood, and not rushed when you’re talking about difficult or painful experiences. I’m a thoughtful, down-to-earth therapist who values authenticity, trust, and genuine connection. My strengths-based approach is grounded in compassion and respect, and I aim to meet each person exactly where they are without judgment.
Starting counseling can feel like a big step, especially if you’re used to handling things on your own. My hope is that you leave sessions feeling understood, challenged in a caring way, and equipped with practical tools you can use in your daily life.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward, you’re not alone and you don’t have to navigate it on your own. Life’s challenges can sometimes leave us feeling drained, anxious, or disconnected from ourselves and others. Therapy can be a space to slow down, reflect, and begin creating meaningful change. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with experience in hospitals, residential programs, community mental health, and private practice. I work with individuals navigating stress, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and concerns related to disordered eating, body image, or weight management.

Life can be difficult. We all need a little help sometimes navigating the peaks and valleys that come our way. My experience includes 19 years of working in both public and private therapeutic schools with children, adolescents and young adults. I enjoy helping those struggling with a variety of life challenges, particularly, with anxiety, depression, stress management, perfectionism and minimizing the occurrences of self-harm by providing clients with healthy replacement strategies.

Humility, honesty and humor are what I value most in my relationships with my clients to create lasting change. I work with people from a variety of backgrounds and genders, but I specialize in helping women heal from relationship and attachment trauma so they can overcome anxiety, navigate changes in their relationships and careers, reconnect with their sense of self, and create healthier, more fulfilling connections.
My other specialty is working with those in the helping professions to support them in advocacy and in overcoming compassion fatigue and burnout.
I got my MSW (Master of Social Work) at Aurora University to become a therapist in 2012. I got my start in community mental health, working in post-adoption and focusing on trauma and attachment work with families. I transitioned to private practice in September 2021.
