I earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Youngstown State University in 2018 and am currently a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with Supervisory designation (LPCC-S) in the state of Ohio. Since entering the field, I have had the opportunity to work with a wide variety of clients, helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, chronic illness, parenting, and the many other stressors life can bring. I also currently provide clinical supervision to counselors as they develop their own skills and professional identities.

My approach to therapy incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Gestalt Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy. At the core of my work is the belief that therapy should be a space where you feel supported and understood—but also challenged when you need it. I’m not the type of therapist who will simply nod along and tell you what you want to hear. My style is genuine and straightforward. We can laugh, be real, have difficult conversations, and work together toward meaningful change.

Outside of my professional role, I’m also a mom of two and someone living with a rare autoimmune disease. These experiences have given me a personal understanding of the complexities of parenting, chronic illness, changing identities, and learning how to navigate a life that doesn’t always go according to plan.

I believe some of the most meaningful therapeutic relationships are built when clients are able to show up exactly as they are. My goal is to provide a space that feels authentic, comfortable, and judgment-free while helping you develop the skills, insight, and confidence needed to create meaningful change in your life.
