Hi,

I became a mental health professional because I want to help people find hope, joy, and fulfillment—even amidst life’s challenges. I believe life is hard, but it’s always possible to experience moments of meaning, growth, and happiness. As a therapist, I have the privilege of walking alongside clients as they navigate setbacks, celebrate wins, and create the changes they want to see in their lives.

My therapeutic style is warm, affirming, and client-centered. I focus on supporting the whole person—mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical—while creating a nonjudgmental space for honest reflection and growth. I primarily use Gestalt and Person-Centered approaches, and I work collaboratively to help clients create actionable steps toward change or simply process life’s challenges in a safe space.

I especially enjoy working with teens and young adults navigating life transitions, eating disorders, body image concerns, and trauma. These years are full of change, identity formation, and pressure, and I strive to provide a space where young people feel seen, understood, and supported. I celebrate every win with clients—big or small—and believe that showing up for therapy is itself a courageous step toward growth.

This year, I’ve graduated with my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling program at the University of Iowa. I’ve also earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology at the University of Iowa. I work with clients both in-person and virtually. My clinical interests include eating disorders, body image, mood disorders, and trauma, with a focus on teens, college students, and young adults.
