Allow me to assist you with processing through emotional experiences and supporting your journey and life goals. Everyone’s challenges are different, but you are not alone. I am passionate about providing a safe place to process past or current trauma, finding your purpose, and exploring life’s challenges with compassion and expertise.

My education and training have focused on helping you heal from significant events that have happened to you. My perspective considers the whole person - everything that has made you who you are. We will explore who and what has influenced you throughout your life in order to identify what you value most and to strengthen your overall sense of self. We will look closer at the thoughts and feelings that underlie the behaviors you want to see improved.

I am certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and specialize in trauma experienced by first responders, depression/anxiety, pregnancy and postpartum mental health, women’s mental health, and relationship challenges.

I graduated from the University of Northern Iowa with a Master’s Degree in Social Work and became a licensed mental health therapist in 2021. I am a mother and a wife to a first responder.
