I consider it the utmost privilege to hear your story and help cultivate your natural strengths and resilience.

I love being a therapist! As a wife, mother, daughter, sister and friend, I understand that life can be a struggle. My clients continue to amaze me with their resilience and desire to create a better life for themselves. I feel that it is an honor and privilege to walk alongside my clients and help them in this journey. 

I am passionate about helping individuals and couples find healing and hope in broken and difficult places in their lives. I have advanced training in Emotionally Focused Therapy and it has impacted me both personally and professionally. I love the lens of grace and responsiveness that are core to its values. I look forward to getting to know you!

was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.
