My Background
My preferred pronouns are she/her. I grew up in Elizabethtown, Kentucky. I attended undergrad and graduate school at Campbellsville University. Upon graduation, I moved to Bowling Green while completing my MSW. I recently relocated to Louisville. I love Kentucky, and I’ve experienced a good portion of it! I specialize in anxiety, stress management, burnout/compassion fatigue that members of the helping profession (teachers, medical providers, mental health providers) experience, and life transitions for high school and college students.
My Approach & Philosophy
I want my clients to feel independently capable of facing every season of life. I support my clients while they grow and pursue becoming who they want to be. It’s fun to celebrate progress and victories with my clients. I also love being a safe space and a neutral party in my clients’ lives. It’s my goal to be my client’s professional hype woman – I love empowering them to achieve their goals! Because therapy should be an uplifting, empowering, and goal-oriented experience, I want to partner with my clients and be in their corner while working through whatever they need.

- My favorite movie is Legally Blonde, and Elle Woods inspires me.
