I am a licensed clinical psychologist, therapist, life coach, entrepreneur, author, and speaker. I am also a wife and mom.💕
My passion for psychology, the brain, and human development began in childhood, and I have over 10 years of professional experience in the field of mental health!
My own trauma steered me to this path, but I wholeheartedly believe that doing this work was always part of my soul’s purpose. My mission is to help people heal and step into who they were always meant to be—by teaching them how understanding the science of their humanness empowers them to navigate life with clarity and confidence. After all, how can we expect to be good managers of ourselves when we do not have foundational knowledge on how to do so? Everyone is capable of growth, but not everyone has been given the tools to understand or support themselves. The good news? It’s never too late! I’m here to help people rebuild what trauma once broke so that they can live fully, authentically, and on their own terms.
My Approach
Whether working with my therapy or coaching clients, I firmly believe in customizing my treatment to the individual. I always take the time to truly get to know you as a person, and I tailor my approach to your needs, personality, and goals. You are a beautiful human, not a diagnosis. I will teach you skills and knowledge to help you better understand and manage your mental and behavioral health. We are a team that will work collaboratively, where you have the important role of being the expert of you, and where I am the expert of psychology and the human brain. Together, we can accomplish so much for your life!
I work with people of ALL identities and backgrounds, so come as you are, and you will be embraced with loving arms and a safe, supportive space! I currently work in private practice and see all my clients (therapy and coaching) remotely via Zoom.
Authenticity
You were born a whole person, destined to go on a self-discovery journey to uncover who you were meant to become. However, trauma and toxic conditioning may have disrupted your journey, causing you to live life according to other people’s expectations rather than your inner guide. My goal is to help you reconnect with your authentic self and to teach you the skills to better navigate the human experience so you can begin living your most fulfilling life.
The Journey
The healing and growth journey is meant to be lifelong. It is a commitment and a lifestyle. We are meant to continuously evolve into better versions of ourselves, as this is the shared purpose of the human experience: to seek knowledge from life events that we apply going forward and to remain a student of life since we are learning new things about humans and the world every day. It is important to have an open mindset, as there is so much for us all to learn. A fixed mindset stunts our growth and greatness because it doesn’t allow us to continue to gain the wisdom needed to perpetually evolve.
My Education
I received my bachelor’s in psychology from DePauw University in Greencastle, Indiana. I then went on to The Chicago School of Professional Psychology, where I completed my Master’s and Doctorate in Clinical Psychology (Psy.D.).
