*CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS* It takes strength to ask for help. Each person lives a life full of unique circumstances and challenges. I believe in partnering with my clients to help them develop their potential and find the path that is right for them. My goal is to empower clients to live their best lives. I enjoy seeing the pride my clients have when they've succeeded in reaching their goals. These goals are often hidden in everyday stressors and the challenges we face, and by exploring challenges in a safe environment, I support my clients in unlocking their goals and fulfilling them. Each person, while having unique psychology and brain chemistry, is an active participant in their environment, whether that be a school, work setting, family, or relationship. We are all influenced by others, and we all have the potential to change our lives. With this in mind, depending on individual needs, I help clients to advocate for positive change. Traditional office hours are often inconvenient. That's why I offer appointments between 8 am and 8 pm on weekdays. Please call or email, and I'll work with you to find the best time for your first appointment.

College can be one of the most exciting and challenging times in your life. Between adjusting to new responsibilities, balancing academics, friendships, and possibly work, it’s normal to feel stressed, overwhelmed, or uncertain about the future. You don’t have to go through it alone. My counseling practice is here to support you through whatever you may be facing—whether it’s stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, identity exploration, or simply navigating the ups and downs of college life. Together, we’ll create a safe, confidential space where you can talk openly, gain new tools, and build resilience to help you succeed both academically and personally. Reaching out for support is a sign of strength, not weakness. My goal is to help you feel understood, supported, and empowered to grow into the best version of yourself during your college journey.

I am a mental health professional who integrates evidence based practices with a Christ Like worldview to support healing, growth, restoration and transformation. True wellness and stability includes all aspects of the person that includes the mind, body, and spirit, and I strive to create a safe, grace-filled space where clients feel seen, heard, and valued. I value providing services to help individuals navigate the the challenging journey of life and offer a non judgemental space where clients can be open, vulnerable and honest about any challenges that they may be facing.

I work best with students who carry a lot internally—people who seem put-together on the outside but feel overwhelmed, anxious, or disconnected underneath. Many of the students I support are high achievers or deep feelers who worry about disappointing others, overthink decisions, or feel pressure to be “the strong one.” They’re often juggling school, relationships, family expectations, cultural or religious pressure, and their own inner world all at the same time. A lot of the students I connect with are navigating big transitions—figuring out who they are, questioning beliefs they grew up with, or trying to become their own person in the midst of complicated family dynamics. Some grew up in high-pressure homes, were the emotional caretaker in their family, or learned to hide their needs. Others are noticing patterns they don’t know how to change, like shutting down, feeling numb, feeling “too much,” or carrying stress in their bodies through tension, trouble sleeping, or difficulty concentrating. Many of my students are the quiet strugglers—the ones who rarely ask for help, apologize for having needs, or carry the emotional load for everyone else. They’re thoughtful, self-aware, and resilient, but exhausted. If you feel stuck between who you’ve been and who you’re becoming, or if you’re looking for a space where you don’t have to hold everything together, you’ll feel understood with me.

Living in your body may feel exhausting, unfamiliar, or even unsafe. Trauma, relationship harm, health changes or chronic illness, and struggles with body image and eating can leave us feeling disconnected and stuck between overwhelm and shutdown. I offer a warm, grounded presence where you can feel seen and begin cultivating a deeper sense of self-trust and wholeness - a space to explore lived experiences and learn supportive wellness practices. I work with busy students who are carrying the weight of stress, trauma, and grief while navigating immense transitions and responsibilities. Many of my clients are healing from sexual violence, emotional relationship harm, chronic/invisible illness and health-related changes (migraines, endometriosis, PCOS, POTS, cancer), and concerns around relationship with body and food, including disordered eating. I've supported students and young adults for over a decade, with many years of experience working in a college specialty counseling clinic. I use a mind-body approach that blends somatic (body-based), cognitive, and mindfulness practices including Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT Tapping). This helps us understand ourselves with compassion, cope with emotional overwhelm and physical body discomfort, heal from trauma, and reconnect to relationships and activities that nourish us. I find great joy in serving multicultural and multi-faith communities while providing a weight-inclusive, culturally-affirming, and trauma-informed space where all parts of you are welcome.

I specialize in working with students in college, educators, people in helping professionals, and young parents. My clients desire someone who can support them in their goals, who listens well, and sees them through a holistic perspective. My clients understand that healing is a process and desire to live a wholehearted life but often feel stuck or find them repeating patterns they can't break. Often people that contact me are in need of support, skills, and a space to navigate the stress and unexpected things that inevitably come in life and partnership. I have been a school social worker for many years, so I bring my experience to help you navigate your life and professional transitions. I approach clients with a person-centered, strength-based, holistic approach. I can help facilitate communication with your partner and help you increase your insight and understanding of yourself. I offer a non-judgmental space with the goal of empowering my clients to guide themselves to health and wholeness. When you are ready and willing, I would be honored to walk this part of your life with you. You can contact me through my website (theflourshingco.org/contact-us) or give my office a call. I look forward to our work together.

I have years of experience providing therapeutic services in a variety of modalities (community based, outpatient, intensive outpatient, group, biofeedback and neurofeedback). I am non-judgmental and open-minded, and provide a safe space for my clients to do hard work. I'd love to help. I'd love to work with you and walk with you through the good times and the bad. You deserve to create a life that you enjoy and to feel proud of the goals that you have achieved!

Counseling is a personal and unique process for each person. I facilitate each client’s unique process, and walk alongside the client, shoring up their strengths and making use of our relationship to bring about positive change. The therapeutic process can be challenging at times, and I work with the client to fully experience the joys and sorrows that are part of life, striving to feel a wide range of emotions. I enjoy working with people of all ages and cultural backgrounds. Starting up the counseling process can feel unknown and scary, and I’ll honor the vulnerability you show in reaching out.

Life can feel like a rollercoaster—full of unexpected ups, downs, and sharp turns that can leave us feeling stuck or unsure of what comes next. In those moments, it’s completely natural to question whether things will ever get better. You don’t have to navigate that alone. In our work together, my goal is to walk alongside you, offering support, practical tools, and a safe space to explore what you need in order to move forward with confidence and a greater sense of balance. I am certified in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and draw from several evidence-based approaches—including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). Together, we’ll tailor treatment to fit your unique needs, values, and goals. I am committed to providing trauma-informed, culturally responsive care. My style is strength-based and collaborative, focusing on helping you access your resilience and developing meaningful, achievable steps that support your mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being. I look forward to connecting with you and supporting you in this next part of your journey.

I have many years of experience working with undergraduate and graduate students as well as faculty and staff at the university level. The reality is that being a student or working in academia can be both very rewarding but challenging and I am here with the privilege of accompanying individuals on their journeys whether it be personal or professional in nature. I look forward to the possibility of working with you to reach your goals!

I believe everyone deserves a connection with their therapist because healing comes through trust and a secure relationship, in which I strive to build between us. I hope to hear from you soon.

It’s not easy having feelings of “not belonging” and “not knowing how to fit in” – questioning “who am I” and “how can I be seen?” Wondering where your people are and then wondering “are these my people?” How to connect while allowing yourself to be vulnerable while allowing yourself to be safe while allowing yourself to experience the full experience of life … Mental / emotional health is a vital necessity for success in life; to be able to make clear decisions without doubt or fear or to practice compassion toward the self instead of letting insecurities take root or judging the self harshly. Symptoms of depression and anxiety can be debilitating and create interference in meeting daily demands – creating low motivation, low energy, a sense of excessive worry or irritability, struggling with concentration / focus or delaying making decisions; or becoming fearful of failing or of losing something valuable.

We understand that asking for help can be scary. You may question what others think or wonder if you really need counseling, but we all get stuck sometimes. You are not alone. Life can become challenging and overwhelming, making you want to escape or avoid external problems or your own needs.

It provides support and tools to build your understanding, courage, and resilience – because you deserve healing, wholeness, fulfillment, and peace.
