Why This Brings Me Joy
I became a counselor because I am passionate about the idea that strong relationships build strong communities. When things are difficult at home, everything else in the world seems so much harder. It is my honor to work with individuals, couples, and families to connect in their relationships. I only use tools that have solid research showing that they are helpful. I grew up in a military family and love putting down roots in beautiful Eagle River, Alaska with my husband and children. I offer Christian counseling upon request.

Why I Do This Work
From a young age I was fascinated by psychology and human behavior. When I saw someone struggling with mental health issues, instead of thinking, "What's wrong with them?" I would often think, "I wonder what happened to them?". The good news is, it isn't always necessary to delve into the past in order to create the life you want now and into the future. I love working with individuals, couples, and families to discover their unique strengths and offer evidence-based tools to help them create their best life. It is always an honor for me to be invited into someone's life and walk alongside them as they go through this process.

Why I Love This Job
From a young age, I have had appreciation for the stories shared with me by others. People are incredible storytellers… We all have a story inside of us! So, as a therapist, I am honored to share those stories in my work with clients. The best part of the therapeutic process is to help my clients see themselves as a hero or a heroine rather than a victim in a story of their lives. In that process, I enjoy building on the unique strengths and resources that each client holds. My goal is for every person that I work with to feel empowered to make an action that would take him or her to a greater quality of life and relationships.

Why I Want To Be Here
I feel strongly that if people can get new ideas, strategies, tools, and skills to deal with the stress that life hands us, then people can become their best selves in their relationships and all areas of life. I am honored to be a part of that journey with each client, specializing their therapy path to match their personal goals.
