Helping young adults tackle life’s challenges with practical tools, real support, and faith-based guidance—because your growth and peace matter.

I’m passionate about helping college-aged individuals and young adults navigate the complexities of life with confidence and clarity. Whether you’re balancing academics, launching your career, or exploring your identity, I’m here to support you every step of the way. I take a practical, solutions-focused approach to therapy, incorporating evidence-based techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you identify patterns, develop strategies, and achieve your goals. I’m here to help you get organized, create actionable plans, and provide a wealth of resources tailored specifically to your needs. For those seeking counseling from a biblical perspective, I also offer faith-integrated services that include prayer and Bible study. Together, we can explore how your faith plays a vital role in your healing and personal growth. Your story matters, and I’m honored to be part of your journey toward growth and transformation. Let’s work together to create a life that feels authentic and fulfilling. I look forward to connecting with you soon!
