We all experience circumstances in our lives that cause us to build walls to protect us. My goal is to meet you where you’re at and help you bring down those walls, one brick at a time. Whether you are experiencing depression, anxiety, substance use disorders, eating disorders, or just need someone to talk to; I would be honored to be part of your journey into being your most authentic self. As your therapist, it is my goal to create a safe space that acknowledges and celebrates your identities; a space that will allow you to heal, grow, and thrive.

Have you ever experienced or witnessed abuse, bullying, addiction, death, depression, traumas and felt that you were alone, not heard, not loved, not supported, and felt like everything was your fault, but don’t understand why you feel like this?
What I offer is a safe space where you can be heard, supported, and learn that you are not alone; help with changing negative thoughts into positives, increasing self-esteem and self-confidence, provide encouragement, and ultimately walk with you through your journey while you have those ups and downs hoping that you find your way to who you really are – an amazing person.
I am a Professional Counselor Associate after 24 years of being a RN working with mental health and substance use. Other experiences include anxiety, medical professional burnout, loss, grief, trauma, domestic violence, personality disorders and health issues.

I utilize several skills focused on where you are throughout your journey. I have a more holistic approach which includes mindfulness practices helping my clients move from now to where they would like to be.

Graduated from Saybrook University for her master’s degree in Clinical Counseling, Grand Canyon University BS in Applied Management and St. Vincent’s College AS in Nursing.

I believe a strong therapeutic relationship is the key to success in therapy. I collaborate with my clients to assess, explore, and effectively treat identified challenges.

I help clients identify and harness strengths to help assist in the treatment process. I aim to provide my clients with a safe, engaging, and relaxed environment.

I have been a practicing clinician for 10 years. My expertise includes anxiety, depression, major life transitions and relationship conflicts. My approach to counseling integrates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), strengths based, person-centered therapy, and Mindfulness to create an individualized experience to help clients heal and create a sense of balance in their lives .
