In 2019, I graduated from Xavier University, earning a master’s degree in clinical Mental Health Counseling in addition to a chemical dependency license. Later pursuing additional education, certifications, and experiences in areas of intense passion; complex or childhood trauma, intergenerational trauma, mother wound, sexual wellness/dysfunction, ADHD, compassionate inquiry, and hypnotherapy. Outside of individual therapeutic relationships, my role as a therapist extends out to intensive or immersive therapeutic experiences, and group facilitation. As a Clinical Director, I support the growth and development of our clinicians, facilitate individual and group supervision, and assist in building and implementing curriculum. In addition to my work with Holistic Therapy & Healing, I serve on the Holos House Board as well as the Grace Method Scientific & Medical Advisory Board. 

As your therapist, I will provide a safe space to explore multiple aspects of yourself. In that process, I will serve as your mirror. Most of us try to heal looking into a mirror full of smudges, creating a false perception of self.  Over time, this false perception of self, in addition to other root causes, leaves us feeling ashamed, disconnected from self and others, and ultimately overtaken by a sense of emptiness. Utilizing holistic therapeutic approaches such as emotions- focused, humanistic, schema, and narrative therapy, the opportunities for growth are endless. Through the therapeutic relationship, individuals gain insight, explore their wants, needs, and desires, and shed negative core beliefs.  In the process of healing, individuals realize they are capable of truly feeling whole when they can free themselves from subconscious patterns that run their life. 

Every human has a true, authentic self. Trauma is the disconnection from it and healing is the connection to it. – Gabor Mate
