Whether you are considering making changes for the first time or looking to maintain long-term growth, my goal is to walk alongside you on that path for continued self-discovery. The goal of therapy is to promote biopsychosocial-spiritual wellness built on your values and boundaries. Therapy works best when it is collaborative so my intention is to provide the space for you to express yourself freely and get to know yourself on a deeper level as we work towards a collective goal. I like to draw from a background of CBT skills, shame-resilience, and positive psychology to empower the people I work with.

I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology from UW-Madison and my Master of Social Work degree from Loyola University Chicago. I have the training and experience to help you in any number of areas including: relationship stress, life transitions, addictions and recovery, compulsive attachments, grief/loss, shame-based trauma, emerging adult stressors, mood disorders, boundary setting, codependency, LGBTQ- related issues, and self-worth.

The LGBTQ community faces a unique set of stressors which can translate to disruptions in daily living. I want to take the time to understand your lived experience and begin to explore the impacts related to guilt/shame, coming out experiences, family issues, minority stress, internalized homophobia, sexual identity, gender identity, & relationships.
