Welcome! I believe therapy is a collaborative journey—your wisdom meets my guidance to create genuine growth. I bring a warm, empathetic presence and blend proven techniques from CBT, DBT, and strengths‑based work to meet you where you are.

Together we will identify what’s been holding you back, craft personalized strategies to overcome challenges, and celebrate every step forward as you move toward greater clarity, confidence, and well‑being.

My clients describe me as warm, compassionate, down‑to‑earth, and deeply attentive. They say I’m a thoughtful listener with a caring presence, offering clear, actionable insights that make them feel genuinely seen, supported, and empowered.

I specialize in working with people who are navigating anxiety and overwhelm, processing past trauma or loss, and learning to build healthier, more fulfilling relationships while cultivating self‑compassion.

I became a therapist because I’m driven by a deep belief in people’s capacity to heal and grow when they feel genuinely heard and supported. Early on, I witnessed the transformative power of having a compassionate, nonjudgmental ally—someone who holds space for both the pain and the possibility.

I’m a National Board–Certified, dual‑licensed LPC (MN, MI & WI) also credentialed in Michigan, and I’ve been guiding clients toward greater resilience and self‑compassion for over 15 years.
