Hope and Transformation
I am compassionate and collaborative in my approach, understanding first-hand the vulnerability of asking for help and doing the work of growth and change. I help clients with many common struggles (e.g., anxiety, depression, etc.) make the changes they want for a more fulfilling life. I work with children as young as 10-years-old up through adults in the individual, couples, and family settings.
I'm particularly passionate about helping high schoolers, college students, and twenty-somethings build identity and meaning in their rapidly changing worlds as they explore what adulthood holds for them.
I have been practicing in the Harrisonburg area since mid-2018 after completing my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in Lynchburg, VA. When not working with people to encourage growth and hope, I spend my time reading authors like C. S. Lewis and Ernest Hemingway, figuring out how to best brew coffee, and running trails in the Valley.
If you feel the next step is asking for someone to come alongside you on the path to healing, please reach out. Your willingness to care for yourself will be met with warmth and quick response.
