I am drawn to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) because of its systematic and goal-oriented approach while simultaneously allowing for a warm and collaborative relationship. As a therapist, CBT is appealing because of its evidence-based status and overall treatment success with longer-lasting symptom relief. It is rewarding to watch my clients gain the confidence to use the tools outside of sessions and become their own best therapist.

I provide short-term counseling 12-16 sessions, assigning homework after each session, and having a structured approach to help my clients have a clear idea of what to expect once we get started!

I am an avid swimmer and spend quite a bit of time outdoors hiking out in nature. I enjoy trying new cooking recipes and seeing my loved ones! My newest hobbies I'm dabbling in are beekeeping and gardening.

I build in transition times throughout my day to ensure I am not rushing around, using mindfulness techniques, looking for moments of humor, listening to music, and keeping a consistent sleep schedule!

I absolutely love historical fiction novels and love Kristin Hannah books. I've read her book The Nightingale multiple times because the story captures me and I lose track of time. I love when a book grabs my attention!

I have a tuxedo cat named Ollie. Ollie is an explorer of all things inside the home, and will often times find himself squeezing into small spaces or falling into the bathtub! Regardless, he always brings a smile to my face and provides comfort everyday.
