Temporary Licensed Mental Health Counselor
Master of Science, Clinical Mental Health Counseling - Upper Iowa University

I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families in both private practice and faith community counseling settings. I coached high school baseball for five years before stepping away to focus on my career, though I continue to support athletes regularly regarding their performance. Since 2023, I have been practicing as a therapist, dedicated to providing compassionate, individualized support to help clients reach their mental health goals.

Therapy is a space where your values and actions come into alignment. My deepest hope is to support you in moving toward what truly matters to you, even through life’s challenges. I am here to listen without judgment and to meet you with compassion and respect. Vulnerability can be one of the hardest skills to practice, so I am committed to creating a safe and empowering environment for you to bravely share your story.
I understand that every person is unique, which is why your goals shape the way we work together. I take an eclectic, individualized approach grounded in current best practices and a trauma-informed perspective. My core methods include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS), which I integrate alongside Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and other evidence-based approaches. This allows me to tailor therapy to your needs and help you build meaningful, lasting change.
