A LITTLE ABOUT ME
I'm a licensed therapist passionate about mental health and all things wellness. I help women let go of shame, feelings of not enoughness, and reconnect to their authentic selves. Life can be imperfect and messy for all of us but so often we are too hard on ourselves and our own worst critics. I believe that we grow and heal when we can honor and nurture our emotions. By embracing our inherent humanness, we can learn how to be more self-compassionate and radically accept ourselves, flaws and all.. That's my goal for anyone I work with. When I'm not in the therapy room, I enjoy hiking, camping, playing in the kitchen, getting lost in fiction novels, and tending to my plant babies.
