About me
I’m a DBT-certified therapist with over 10 years of experience and dual licensure as an LCSW and LCADC.
I specialize in treating addiction, eating disorders, personality disorders, behavioral issues, trauma, suicidal ideation, anxiety, depression, and unhelpful thinking patterns. I use an integrative approach grounded in DBT, CBT, and Schema Therapy. I am also experienced in working with clients involved with the criminal justice system.
As a wife, mom, and competitive bodybuilder, I understand the challenges of balancing personal growth with everyday demands. I also work closely with athletes and high performers to strengthen mental resilience and achieve their goals. I’m here to support you in building a life that feels meaningful, healthy, and empowered.
