I received my Master of Social Work from The University of North Dakota in Grand Forks, and my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Georgetown University in Washington, DC. My professional background includes working with military servicemembers and their families, women and their unique strugges, as well as members of the LGBTQ+ community.

My approach to working with clients is that client is the expert on their own lives. I see clients from a strengths-based perspective, and seek to help my clients recognize and harness their inner strengths. I take an integrative approach to therapy, utilizing multiple modalities and tailoring treatment plans to suit my clients' specific needs. My primary approach is pyschodynamic, while incorporating mindfulness based practices.

I am here to listen and provide you with a safe and non-judgmental space, all while reminding you that you truly guide the way down the path you which to be on.
