I am a licensed professional counselor candidate at Louisville Family center, serving adults, couples and people with addictions. Mindfulness-based, somatic techniques, Gestalt, NVC and existential psychotherapy are therapies that I use. I affirm people of all ages, abilities, genders, sexual orientations, races, ethnicities, national origins, religions, and SES.

Through support and encouragement, I strongly believe that every individual has the ability to create change and find balance in their lives. Currently, I am specializing in working with clients who are struggling with perinatal mood disorders, infertility, baby loss and the transition to parenthood. In addition to my specialties, I am trauma informed and have been trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing, which supports my work with clients who are dealing with varying life challenges and mental health concerns.

I feel that therapy should go beyond the face-to-face meeting between the therapist and client, which is why I use mind-body techniques, to help clients navigate and manage overwhelming stress.
