Hi there! I’m glad you’ve made the courageous decision to seek counseling. Taking that first step can feel overwhelming, and I’m honored to walk alongside you as you move toward healing and growth. I became a counselor because I value being a steady, compassionate presence in someone’s life—meeting you where you are, honoring your story, and supporting you as you set meaningful goals and build coping skills.

​

I hold a Master’s in Human Developmental Counseling from the University of Illinois Springfield (2021) and am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), accredited by the National Board of Counseling. I provide fully virtual therapy to adolescents and adults, offering flexible telehealth appointments to fit your needs.

​

My clinical background is broad and includes work in community agencies supporting adults with severe mental illness, crisis services, psychiatric evaluations in emergency rooms for all ages, trauma therapy for all ages and families, K–12 school counseling (individual and group counseling), juvenile detention, and serving as Clinical Director at a therapeutic day school where I helped build a clinical program. These roles have shaped my commitment to accessible, individualized, and trauma-informed care.

​

My therapeutic foundation is narrative-based therapy, and I integrate evidence-informed modalities—CBT, motivational interviewing, solution-focused techniques, and play- and art-based interventions—tailoring each session to the unique needs and strengths of the person in front of me. I prioritize relationship and trust-building so we can collaborate effectively on your journey.

​

I work with adolescents and adults on issues including stress management, grief, trauma, depression, anxiety, PTSD, mood disorders, peer pressure, self-esteem, women’s health and infertility concerns, and bullying. My goal is to create a warm, safe, and empowering space where you feel comfortable sharing your story and growing toward the life you want.

​

When I’m not working, I’m a new mom, dog-mom, and wife who loves making new memories and being adventurous/getting out of my comfort zone—balanced with lazy days curled up with a good book or rewatching the Harry Potter movies. 

I’m available for virtual appointments and look forward to supporting you.
