About me
I am a Licensed Master Social Worker and Masters level ICF certified Life Coach who believes in the profound impact of the stories we tell ourselves.
I believe our narratives shape our reality, emphasizing the unique nature of individual experiences. By recognizing this subjectivity, we open ourselves to diverse perspectives, fostering empathy, understanding, and effective communication. Further, I believe that within these subjective stories lie the answers to understanding and navigating the world around us.
I have an undergraduate degree in Social Work from James Madison University (where I was named Social Worker of the Year) and a graduate degree in Science and Social Work from the University of Texas, As a practitioner, I guide individuals on a transformative journey, helping them understand the influence of their past on their present and set future goals. I empower my clients to achieve a balanced and regenerative state of peace through small, daily practices, facilitating lasting positive change in their relationships, both with others and, importantly, with themselves.
