About My Clients

This time of life can be overwhelming, so full of change and new that sometimes it feels like too much. It can be confusing trying to figure out who you are, what you believe, how to be in relationships with others and even with yourself! Developing autonomy is exciting and it can also be scary to have to “adult” so much. You are taking responsibility for yourself, but probably still feel like you are ‘not quite’ an adult. I love to help people navigate this in-between time.

My Background and Approach

I hold a Master's Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology. I have additional training in Supporting College Student Well-Being and Mental Health, Mindfulness and Relationships, Interpersonal Neurobiology and Attachment, Trauma Informed Care, Crisis Intervention, Grief and Loss, and Suicide Prevention. I have worked at several Universities in different capacities, serving college students’ needs, as an Academic Advisor, Career Counselor and Mental Health Counselor. My desire is to support and enhance the emotional well-being of college students as they navigate their way through the college experience. I have always been passionate about this particular time in a person’s life and love working with the college student population.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I know being a college student (and just being a human) is hard. You are figuring out yourself, school, love, relationships, work, and life. It’s a lot. I believe we all need a place where we can tell the truth about just how hard it is. We all need a place where we can share what is really going on. A place where we can feel that we are not alone. A place where it is absolutely ok to not be ok. I can provide this for you. And, I can also help you step into a space of being empowered during all this change and growth; excited to explore and make decisions, and cope more effectively with uncertainty. I help my clients recognize their basic healthiness, sometimes and even especially when they cannot identify it in themselves. I support your strengths and your development of confidence, helping you cultivate a greater appreciation of yourself and who you most truly are, as well as your resources and your resilience.
