We partner with you, knowing that therapy is hard work but you’re worth it.
My Background and Approach
My style is warm, attuned, and relaxed incorporating research-backed therapeutic modalities that make therapy #feelgood.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I started my counseling journey, by developing an all-woman's support group entitled, "Women in Leadership." I then began working in corporate America, until I decided to go back to school for counseling. My experience involves working in major hospitals to court-appointed therapy for individuals in the criminal justice system. In that experience, I became affiliated with trauma specializations including domestic violence, rape, homicide, addiction, and gang violence.
