How I Can Help You

I believe nothing is more important than the therapeutic relationship, and I am committed to working with you to build a strong, supportive connection. My approach is non-judgmental and empathetic with a focus on creating a safe and comfortable space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings. Authenticity is at the core of my practice; I will always show up as my true self. My educational journey has provided me with a solid foundation in mental health principles and practices, and I continuously research the most up-to-date methods to offer the best services possible. Additionally, I am in the process of being EMDR trained. I have a great sense of humor and believe that laughter is a powerful tool for healing. I look forward to supporting you on your journey to mental and emotional well-being.

  • I grew up in Michigan and moved to Fort Wayne, Indiana for college, where I found a community I loved and decided to stay. My boyfriend and I bought a house in 2020, complete with a perfect backyard for Dexter, our Jack Russell. Outside of my professional life, I enjoy exploring Fort Wayne’s vibrant community, from its beautiful art to its cultural events. I am passionate about continuous learning and often engage in activities that enhance my understanding of mental health and well-being. I am creative, fun-loving, and high-energy, bringing these qualities into my practice to create a dynamic and engaging therapeutic experience.
