I have been practicing since 2011, focusing on individual counseling for adults and teens. I have enjoyed the process of walking alongside with my clients, helping them increase their own self-awareness and find inner peace. As a trauma-focused therapist, I help clients find the sources of their distress and remove the barriers that allow the brain to heal on its own. Investing in your mental and emotional health in these ways can allow us to shift from powerlessness to resolution and healing.
You are always in the driver's seat, and whether you need to stop and look at the scenery, choose to let it go, or somewhere in between, I'm here with you every step of the way.

I’m proud to help lead Going the Distance Counseling and Consulting, PLLC, a group of thoughtful, emerging therapists under supervision that I personally support. They’re currently accepting new clients and offer a warm, genuine approach to healing—at a lower private-pay rate.
If you're seeking care, I trust these colleagues and encourage you to explore whether one might be a good fit, at:
