I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate (LPCC in Colorado, LPCA in South Carolina) with a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, seen, and supported, just as you are. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready to explore what’s next, we’ll work together in a way that centers your values, voice, and sense of agency. I draw from a variety of approaches based on what fits you best, and we’ll move at a pace that respects your needs- whether we’re focusing on the present, making space for the past, or imagining the future.

I’m especially drawn to work that explores how early experiences shape who we are and how we relate to the world. Many of the people I work with are carrying the weight of developmental or complex trauma- wounds that can be hard to name but show up in powerful ways over time. Together, we’ll gently untangle those patterns and work toward greater clarity, connection, and healing. As an adoption-competent, adoptee-centric provider, I bring both lived and professional experience working with all members of the adoption constellation. I have a special interest in supporting individuals navigating adoption-related experiences, identity questions, anxiety, and the layered grief that can accompany growth.

Are you tired of craving peace and quiet, only to feel restless the moment you find it? Do you catch yourself questioning everything internally, even when you have what you need? These experiences can be signs of depression, anxiety, stress, or unresolved trauma. I help men, veterans, service members, and children reconnect with themselves, improve behaviors, and find the stability and clarity they and their families have been searching for.

As a Marine Corps veteran, I know firsthand how hard it can be to open up, especially to someone who doesn’t understand the culture, the pressure, or the unspoken expectations. I’ve been in the seat where therapy felt distant and disconnected. That’s why I’ve dedicated my work to bridging that gap and making you feel understood from the start. 

Whether you're surviving the stress of your day-to-day, struggling with mental health, seeking more satisfaction in your relationships or career, needing to change and modify some behaviors, or simply trying to regain a sense of purpose, no matter the problem, I’ve got your back.
