Self Esteem
I have a deep passion for working with children and adolescents who show perfectionist tendencies, are hard on themselves, have challenges with daily routines, struggle making or keeping friends, feel different, and/or struggle managing their emotions.
As a mother of two, former middle school teacher, and current school counselor, I have a soft spot in my heart for the elementary and middle school stages of life. I love the genuine curiosity, creativity, and sense of wonder the elementary years bring, and I am refreshed by the honesty, humor, and unique perspectives middle schoolers share.
I'm committed to supporting young individuals as they navigate challenges by equipping them with strategies, skills, and insight that empower them to feel confident and prepared to take on each day. Let's chat about how we can foster resilience, strengthen confidence, and improve the overall wellbeing of the child(ren) in your life!
Clients can expect a supportive, collaborative, and trusting atmosphere where they are empowered in the therapeutic process. I focus on providing my clients with practical strategies they can use outside of therapy to foster resilience, strengthen confidence, and improve their overall wellbeing.

Watching
From August to February, you can always find football on my TV! I was born into a football family and have been a Dallas Cowboys fan from birth – my grandmother even produced the Cowboys' halftime shows! While the Cowboys don’t always perform as they should, I’m a die-hard fan who thrives on the excitement of the game and the sense of community football brings. Along with rooting for the Cowboys, my family and I love cheering on the Mizzou Tigers and the Kansas City Chiefs!
Listening
Luke Combs (and all country music) is my favorite! I always look forward to tuning into Hawkeye in the Morning during my long commute. I love the music, humor, witty banter, and fun segments that help me wake up and start my day on a positive note.
Reading
I’m a huge fan of audiobooks—there’s something magical about diving into a great story anytime, anywhere. I’m especially drawn to realistic fiction, with a soft spot for those perfect "beach reads" that are light yet packed with a strong plot and rich characters. The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton is my all-time favorite novel, and I recently took a trip to see the Broadway musical adaptation in New York— 10 out of 10 recommend!
Learning
As a mother of two, school counselor, and private practice therapist, I'm constantly learning and growing. My kids keep me on my toes and teach me lessons daily, and I am committed to staying current with the best practices in both parenting and counseling.
See if we’re a good fit.
