My passion for counseling comes directly from my own life experience. I believe that growth is life long, and clarity is possible. I am here to walk alongside you as you navigate the beautiful, complex, and often challenging terrain of adult life.
My Approach to Therapy
As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), my therapeutic philosophy is built on the understanding that every stage of adulthood presents a unique opportunity for development. I hold a Master’s Degree in Mental Health and approach therapy with a blend of evidence-based skills and genuine warmth.
If you’re facing a career shift, redefining your values, or learning to rebalance family roles, I see these moments not as crises, but as powerful catalysts for change. My goal is to bring a sense of playfulness and possibility into our work, ensuring you feel comfortable, challenged, and deeply understood.
Life Beyond the Office
I bring a grounded, realistic perspective to therapy because I've lived through significant transitions myself:
* Marital Longevity: I've been married for over 20 years, experiencing firsthand the evolution required to sustain a long-term partnership.
* Family Life: I'm the mother of two children and the hub of a dynamic family. I know what it means to juggle responsibilities and navigate family dynamics.
* Major Transitions: I've supported my spouse through a dramatic career switch from the business world to firefighting, giving me a deep appreciation for the stress and identity shifts that come with major life changes.
These experiences allow me to connect with you not just as a therapist, but as a fellow human who understands that life is messy, wonderful, and constantly evolving.
If you're ready to navigate change and build resilience, I look forward to connecting with you.
