Therapy Style
I provide online counseling for sobriety and mental wellness. I help stressed-out high achievers find sobriety and mental balance by providing a safe space to process and talk about job stress, family issues, alcohol & substance use, as well as any other mental health concerns or stressors you might be experiencing. My goal is to be collaborative and person-centered, I don't have a one-size-fits-all approach to counseling and will utilize various tools such as psychodynamic, CBT, and DBT to name a few.

What are your interests outside of work?
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband and two kids. We spend a lot of time at the park and with extended family. My son is starting pre-k soon and we are planning on homeschooling.
What is one thing you do daily that supports your mental and emotional well-being?
One thing I do daily that supports my mental and emotional wellbeing is a daily morning routine that consists of spiritual practices and prayer.
What book have you read more than once?
Alcoholics Anonymous, the reason I've read this more than once is that for me it's a handbook on life. I learn something new about myself and about how to live a more fulfilled life every time I read through it.
