About My Clients

My clients are often the type who want to go deeper but aren't sure how. I help clients connect with their authentic selves and release blocks to build a more peaceful, inspired, (maybe even joyful) life. I work with adults 18+ who are navigating depression, anxiety, self-esteem, identity, high sensitivity, and complex trauma. I support each client's needs and unique healing journey with a personalized treatment plan.

My Background and Approach

I’m passionate about personal transformation and find a holistic lens to be a meaningful part of that process. My approach integrates insight and experiential tools to explore your inner world. In my sessions, I lead with curiosity, compassion, and authenticity to create a non-judgmental space. I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling and am working toward licensure in Virginia. I’ve completed EMDR Basic Training (EMDRIA-approved) and actively integrate EMDR into sessions while completing the required consultation.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that counseling is my calling. It's an honor for me to sit alongside anyone, without discrimination, in their pain and in their successes. In my own life, I used to feel stuck without knowing why, until I realized my own truths that helped me change. Therapy helped me achieve that, and now I’m passionate about helping others do the same work. In my spare time, I enjoy playing music, video games, gardening, and hanging out with my pets. I look forward to walking with you on this rewarding and often surprising path.
