About

I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. I am also a National Academy of Sports Medicine Certified Personal Trainer and Certified Nutrition Coach. I’m passionate about helping individuals transform challenges into opportunities for growth. My approach is rooted in compassion, empathy, and a strong belief that everyone has the capacity to create purpose and direction in their lives. I work with adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, low self-esteem, relationship concerns, and life transitions. I support college students as they navigate academic uncertainty and the transitions in and out of college. I also help athletes break through mental barriers to reach their peak performance.

I draw from CBT, ACT, Reality Therapy, and Existential Therapy to help you understand the patterns that shape your thoughts, emotions, and choices. I also weave in principles from polyvagal theory to support regulation of the nervous system, encourage a greater sense of safety in the body, and help you shift out of chronic stress responses. These approaches offer both insight and practical tools, guiding you toward steadier reactions, clearer decision making, and a stronger connection with yourself and others.

Together, we can explore what feels heavy or confusing, identify the beliefs or habits that may be holding you in place, and build new ways of responding that feel grounded and achievable. The process is collaborative and flexible, centered on your comfort and your goals. Over time, this work can strengthen resilience, reduce emotional strain, and support meaningful change that aligns with the life you want to create.

If you are seeking relief from old patterns, hoping to feel more grounded, or wanting to strengthen your sense of self, I am here to support you as you move toward a more balanced and fulfilling life. When the time feels right, reach out and we can begin shaping a path that reflects your needs, your pace, and your goals for the future.
