I am a licensed mental health counselor, graduating with my masters in mental health counseling from Capella University in 2012.

I am very passionate about preventative mental health, neurodiversity and suicide prevention and have personal experiences with each.

I aim to provide hope for the future, empower my clients to gain insight, develop coping skills, and make positive changes in their lives, or even just have a space to process life.
I look forward to meeting with you.

I offer a variety of services as listed on our website.
