About Me

Finding a therapist can be hard - it requires your time, effort, and vulnerability. My hope is that by sharing a bit about me, you might have a better sense of whether we’ll “click.”

I earned my BS in Political Science from Boise State University, where I also competed in speech and debate all four years. Afterwards, I spent time coaching debate and advocacy at a correctional facility in Idaho, which remains a highlight of my life and shapes my thinking about and therapy. Before discovering my path to becoming a therapist, I spent five years in legal administrative work, including four years in Washington, DC, as an executive assistant at an international law firm. In 2021, I returned to school and earned my Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from Fordham University in 2023. Before opening my private practice, I gained experience at a group practice working with adolescents, adults, and couples.
