I’m honored to walk alongside teens and adults in some of life’s hardest moments toward healing through counseling. Together, we’ll navigate pain and uncover purpose by digging deeper — helping you become more deeply grounded in who you are and what you value while growing into your most authentic, whole self.

I work with people who…

  • Appear to have it all together or may seem like they’re thriving, but on the inside, they feel over-extended, anxious, and unsteady. They try to push through and perform but often feel overwhelmed by the chaos inside and keep busy, shut down, or distract themselves to try to cope.

  • Are the ones that others rely on for support, even if they’re running on empty. They often say “yes” when they want to say “no” or feel like there’s no option but to appease others to keep the peace, even if it comes at their expense.

  • Second-guess themselves and feel like their inner compass has been drowned out by the noise and expectations from family, friends, work, our world, or even their faith community. They feel unsure how to ease the pressure they feel and how to tune into their voice to guide them in how they navigate relationships and daily life.

  • Carry the weight of the past that feels unresolved but overwhelming to explore, even though the impacts of past painful events and relationships are felt.

  • Are navigating big changes — challenges like a breakup, loss of a loved one, shifts in relationships, and even exciting changes like a new relationship, a new job, preparing for marriage, or going to college — and feel unsure how to navigate the ground shifting beneath you in the new terrain.

This is where therapy can help.

Imagine moving through your day with clarity and confidence where you're no longer just holding it all together. Instead, you feel steady, able to navigate life’s demands without guilt or anxiety, and connected to God, others, and yourself because you've learned how to honor your needs, heal what’s heavy, and live in alignment with who you truly are. This kind of life is not just possible for you, but it’s within reach. When life feels overwhelming and the pressure builds, you don’t have to face it alone, even if that’s what you’re used to. Together, we can gently hold the pain and untangle the struggles you face so you can rest and receive care in the places you need it most.
