I'm passionate about helping you to both recognize and build inner resilience. My holistic understanding of wellness is rooted in culturally competent and evidence based approaches to psychotherapy. This foundation is informed not only by my clinical training, but also by an eclectic background in academia, psychological research, social justice movements, a variety of spiritual and religious contexts, mentoring teens, and teaching yoga. I hold an MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Christian Theological Seminary and a Clinical Mental Health Counseling license in the state of Indiana. In addition, I hold a BA in both psychology and religious studies from Indiana University, which provides me with a broad understanding of how spirituality, religion, trauma, family systems, and society can affect us both negatively and positively. Learning and growing is a lifelong process that doesn’t end with a degree or certification. I am committed to and energized about my own growth as a clinician and person. This commitment to my own wellness and growth is a cornerstone to my work as a therapist.

Have you experienced therapy in the past but maybe felt like the experience was too stuffy? Do you worry about judgement in the therapist’s office and find yourself filtering what you share? I know this reality is true for many people and my goal is to provide you with a new way of experiencing therapy. I have worked in all levels of care and I truly believe in a warm, holistic, and genuine approach to therapy. There is space for processing, crying, laughing, and anything else you need! I will utilize both Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) throughout our work together to set a framework and present some level of psychoeducation. While the development of coping skills and understanding our thoughts and patterns to deal with distress and aid in emotion regulation will be important to our work together, my ultimate goal in therapy is to be flexible and holistic in my approach, working alongside you collaboratively to make powerful change towards the life that you envision. I honor that you are the expert of your own life, and as a therapist I am present to help process, empower, and seek joy. I understand college is one of the most stressful times in life, and having a trusted therapist to help during this transition can make the world of difference. I have been in your shoes and would love to be your partner in experiencing this difficult but rewarding and transformative time in life.
I treat obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), phobias, trauma, anxiety, and perfectionism. I draw upon a unique breadth of life experience in helping students to chart their own paths forward. Previous roles: Management Consultant, Head of School, and Teacher. I hold an MSW program from The Ohio State University, MPA from Harvard University, and BA in Psychology from Northwestern University.
It is our mission to support one's journey toward healing and understanding by strengthening the relationship with self and others. We offer therapy for individuals of all ages, families, and couples. Our therapists specialize in working with individuals and families who have been impacted by adoption, foster care, attachment, and trauma. Other challenges that our therapists can help address include depression, anxiety, grief/loss, relationship conflict, life transitions, and other mental/emotional challenges. We aim to meet you where you are, both emotionally and physically. To do so, we offer several options for sessions, including meeting in the office, community, or even sometimes your own home. We offer Walk and Talk, which combines your journal to healing with the benefits of exercise and being outdoors.
Bottling up or stuffing down emotions can be so overwhelming to teen girls and women, especially in today’s social climate. The people that you love the most are not always equipped to support you in ways that you need and deserve. Social stigma that most people have about therapy can deter you from seeking the help that you need and deserve. I am here to help you navigate the spaces that appear difficult. Therapy helps provide a safe, non judgemental and confidential space to talk about the challenges you would like to process. Whether you have anxiety, depression or low self-esteem, together we will come up with a plan to discover your strengths so you can live your best life. Help me help you, become a better version of yourself. Life is not easy, but it is easier when you have the right help and support.
*immediate openings* I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. I am part of a holistic practice that understands how mental health is connected to your physical and spiritual health. I became a therapist after working for 6 years helping families stay together. I have special training in combining faith with clinical expertise. I am so intent on making sure my clients obtain the results they desire. I aim to work myself out of a job! I have a passion for research and am currently cofacilitating a research study related to COVID. I also have experience in working with immigrants and understand how culture can affect everything. It is such an honor to hear others' experiences and partner with them on their healing journey. I hope I get the honor of working with you too. Call me to schedule today!
I've always been a strong believer that your mindset and behaviors can be a significant game changer in the way things are in life. CBT and Mindfulness perspectives are what I work from most, but I also incorporate other methods that will best help you work through, gain insight and clarity in what you're seeking to improve or change. As a therapist, it's important to feel safe and comfortable to share your story. My goal and hope is that you feel as comfortable as you would going over to a friends house, sitting on their couch and having a meaningful conversation. I truly honor the therapeutic space that my clients have and to hear their stories. When you feel ready, I am here to listen
Hello! I serve adolescent and adult clients from a variety of backgrounds who all are seeking freedom from stress and overwhelm. Some are burnt-out and exhausted because they have high-expectations for themselves and struggle with self-care. Some have experienced childhood trauma or challenges in relationships. Some are so overwhelmed they default to avoidance-numbing with doom scrolling, binge-watching, or staying too busy. Some numb themselves with drugs and alcohol to cope. They all want to heal and be free from the patterns they experience. I would love to help you in your journey too!
