For over 20 years, I have walked alongside individuals, couples, and families as they navigate life’s most tender and transformative moments. My counseling journey began in ministry—as a lay counselor and co-leader for couples—and that foundation of faith, compassion, and genuine care for people has shaped everything I do. Today, in private practice, I create a confidential, judgment-free space where healing feels less like hard work and more like a spa for your mind.
My formal training began in 2011, when I pursued my Master’s degree in counseling. During that time I provided individual and group therapy for people living with chronic mental health challenges, supported teen mothers in a local group home, and facilitated group therapy for my graduate cohort — experiences that deepened my commitment to meeting people where they are, with honesty and without judgment.
As a follower of Christ, I value the role faith can play in the healing journey, while honoring each person’s unique background and beliefs. Whether you come to me in the middle of a storm or simply ready to grow, my approach is tailored to you — your goals, your story, your pace.
I am also a trained Restorative Justice practitioner, committed to fostering accountability, healing, and restoration in individuals, families, and communities. This work reflects my belief that wholeness is not just personal — it is relational and communal.
I stay actively engaged with the broader mental health and restorative justice communities so that I can bring you the most current, relevant, and effective approaches to wellness. I currently serve as:
