In particular, I love working with people who are told they are “too much” - too loud, too dramatic, too emotional, too disorganized…

Sometimes the person telling you that you are “too much” is yourself. Wherever it comes from, you are welcome here!

How I Got Started

In college, I taught English as a Second Language to adult refugees with Catholic Charities. This was the beginning of many years of both volunteering and working with adults and kids from all over the world.

I still felt a tug on my heart to go deeper.

I found Divine Mercy University and received my M.S. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2022. There, I was taught an integrated approach to human flourishing combining the wisdom of the Catholic faith with the grounding of the psychological sciences. I am passionate about incorporating this framework in my strengths-based, hope-filled approach with each client.

I now work with teens and adults of all ages navigating anxiety, intrusive thoughts, unhealthy relationships, ADHD and other forms of neurodivergence, and adjusting to life transitions. People often come to me initially feeling overwhelmed, stuck in patterns they want to break out of, and uncertain about next steps. Through treatment, and my warm, compassionate, encouraging therapeutic style, individuals can find clarity, confidence, and practical strategies tailored to their unique strengths and ways of engaging with the world.

I have formal training in EMDR (Level 2, Green Cross Academy of Traumatology) and in administering clinical ADHD evaluations. She believes in treating the whole person and as such takes an eclectic, trauma-informed approach to therapy, incorporating whichever techniques may serve each client best.
