Taking the steps towards therapy can be uncomfortable, especially if this is your first experience or if you haven’t found the right fit yet. I am passionate in knowing that authenticity and connection can foster a safe space to be exactly as you are with non-judgment and empowerment.

I operate from an acceptance and commitment therapy approach, incorporating trauma-informed and somatic (mind-body) interventions, mindfulness and yoga (originating from Southeast Asia and Buddhism), play therapy methods, and expressive therapies. I can also incorporate more practical tools such as DBT and CBT skills.
I strive to see my clients through a multicultural lens, taking into consideration any social, racial, or cultural identities they feel are important to who they are. I am an LGBTQIA2S+ ally.
I work with my clients on reaching their goals and navigating life transitions. For my child & teen clients, understanding their worldview is essential to addressing challenges they may experience.
Individual counseling focused on understanding patterns, strengthening emotional regulation, and supporting wellbeing through life’s transitions.
Using a whole-person approach, I help couples deepen understanding, improve communication, and move toward greater relational wellbeing.
Child and adolescent counseling grounded in play-based methods and evidence-informed practices to support emotional regulation, identity development, and wellbeing.
I am a nationally certified counselor (NCC) and an associate licensed counselor (ALC) in Alabama working under the supervision of Misty Robertson Smith LPC-S.
I graduated with my bachelor’s degree from the University of Utah majoring in Parks, Recreation, and Tourism with an emphasis on Therapeutic Recreation in 2017. I hold an MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Northwestern University (2025).
I have over 12 years of experience in the mental health field working with eating disorder recovery, healthcare/disability organizations, clinical mental health and behavioral health in schools. I love working with children, teenagers, adults, and couples incorporating my love for recreation and movement.
In my free time, I love walking my husky and cat, going on waterfall hikes with my husband, and enjoy music and singing.
