My Approach to Helping
I believe therapy is a space for healing, growth, and alignment. My approach is trauma-informed, holistic, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I work with individuals and couples, helping clients navigate feelings of chaos and misalignment in their inner and outer worlds. Also, supporting women with anxiety, perinatal challenges, and early motherhood is central to my work as they navigate the complexities of these transitions.
Together, we process the emotions—grief, anger, fear—that weigh heavily on the body, reframe the thought patterns that keep us stuck, and address self-destructive behaviors that no longer serve us. Through therapy, we cultivate tools for self-care, build healthier relationships, and foster personal advocacy and accountability. The goal is to gain deeper insight into who you are, how you got here, and where you want to go.
I earned my bachelor’s in Human Development and Family Sciences from The Ohio State University and my master’s in Counseling Psychology from Bastyr University in Seattle, WA. For nearly a decade, I’ve taught yoga and meditation, practices I weave into my therapeutic work to support mindfulness and embodiment. I also have advanced training in perinatal mood disorders through Postpartum Support International (PSI) and have studied Gottman Couples Therapy.
Originally from Cleveland, Ohio, I now cherish life with my toddler, early mornings with a warm coffee, and moments of reflection with a great book or podcast.
