The Journey Forward
I see people who are overwhelmed by life’s patterns, a system that feels like it’s failing them, or the quiet grief for a family they never got to have. I work with those navigating relationships that feel both right and wrong at the same time, and those simply searching for steadiness in a complex world.
I believe healing isn’t about "fixing" who you are; it’s about reclaiming your right to breathe, explore, and feel alive. Not addressing past narratives or bodily stress can lead to a persistent sense of disconnection. My goal is to help you move beyond survival and into a deeper connection—with yourself and others.
I meet people exactly where they are, lead with celebration, acceptance, and compassion. While I bring many "fancy" clinical skills to the table, I have found that true change happens most profoundly when people are met with those three things.
My practice blends Somatic Experiencing, Narrative Therapy, and Person-Centered approaches. This means we won’t just talk about your thoughts; we will work with your body’s wisdom and the stories that shape your reality.

Beyond the Office
If I’m not working or in the kitchen baking or prepping dinner, you’ll find me sitting by the Grand River, whispering sweet nothings to rocks before I throw them in.
