Why did you become a mental health professional?

​

I am honored to work with people who choose to prioritize their wellness and invest in their healing. Ultimately, I am inspired by the clients I work with and take great joy in witnessing people reclaim their lives and embrace their authenticity.

What are your interests outside of work?

​

I find peace in the outdoors and spend my weekends packrafting, paragliding, and soaking in fresh air
and sunshine. I love cooking and baking, hot yoga, and spending time with my partner and our dog.
