Nice to meet you

If you’re looking for someone empathic, collaborative, and willing to challenge you toward growth, you’re in the right place. I believe healing happens through connection and understanding. My approach is warm, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive. I specialize in helping adults and couples become the best version of themselves and live in alignment within their relationships and their lives. My background includes hospital crisis work, outpatient substance use treatment, and private practice experience.

Interests

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time in nature, caring for my plants, and being with my dogs. I love DIY projects and interior decorating, especially creating peaceful, cozy spaces that reflect balance and creativity. These interests help me stay grounded and recharged, allowing me to bring that same sense of calm and inspiration into my work with clients.
