Hello, I love working with teens and preteens struggling to cope with life challenges. These challenges or experiences sometimes tell us we are weak, not worthy, not loved, or can't handle life. My passion is to help you discover the power you already have to move through life knowing you are important to the world. Whether you are dealing with depression, anxiety, grief, or ADHD, I am here to help you develop the skills needed to live a healthier life. I have my LPC and offer Telehealth sessions after school.

I believe in the profound healing power of nature and its ability to harmonize the mind, body, and spirit. Being outdoors isn’t just beneficial, its an essential component of human health. It's more than just working with a licensed mental health professional—I am your guide on a transformative journey through nature's healing embrace. In my practice, nature is much more than a backdrop; it's an essential participant in the therapeutic process. The environment in which therapy takes place is just as important as the therapy itself. The natural world is a co-therapist in your journey to well being.

I work with individuals and couples who want to actively create the lives or relationships they desire. By helping clients identify the blocks keeping them stuck, they are free to explore and experiment with more creative and effective ways of living. Group counseling can be especially helpful increasing self-awareness, creating support and experiencing validation.

“The more you understand how worthy you are, the more likely you’ll find your strength again.” - Tabitha Brown. It is essential to understand our own worth and to learn who we are as individuals. Unfortunately through various life events, we may lose sight of who we are or never learn who we are at all. When we don’t have an understanding of our own worth, it is difficult to find our inner strength and to understand what we deserve out of life and relationships. Due to feelings of unworthiness and/or low self-esteem, we may end up making decisions, choosing relationships, and reacting to life in ways that do not serve us well.

I view therapy as a space for you, the client to be unequivocally yourself while recognizing that there are so many internal and interpersonal factors alongside systems in place that may contribute to the pain, anxiety, and discomfort one feels. You are the most important person in your own life, and once you start to care for yourself in healing ways, this can be extended to others who you care for and love. I believe that it is important to walk patiently with every individual and I also believe that it is important to discuss how cultural beliefs and societal roles may influence one’s perception and experiences.

Psychotherapy, from its Greek origin, means to tend or render service to the soul or life spirit. My goal is to assist you to find that quiet place within you, your soul or life spirit, where your healing begins. From this source, you have the opportunity to transform your life.

Many of my clients describe me as warm and intuitive and believe that I am able to get to the core of their issues in a relatively short time.

Along with my PhD in Psychology, I will help you identify strengths, develop skills, and provide you with the appropriate tools needed to meet your goals. It would be my absolute pleasure to be on this journey with you, helping you work toward a healthier, happier and stronger you!
