Navigating life can be challenging and present us with obstacles such as unexpected changes, unwelcome events, or damage to important relationships, but I reassure you that you are not alone. I am dedicated to assisting in repaving your road, toward optimism, happiness, and emotional well-being. Together, we can create the understandings, resources, and strategies necessary to make the shift from surviving to thriving. 

I obtained my BSW from Pittsburg State University. I am currently working to obtain my MSW through the University of Kansas. I have experience working with children and teens within the school setting. My mission is to continue to work with children and teens, as well as women while utilizing CBT, strength-based approach, and play therapy. 

I am eager to offer you a better tomorrow, while honoring and respecting where you are currently in your journey of life. Here, you can rediscover your confidence, bravery, and strength. Free from shame and criticism.

I truly believe that seeking support is the first step to finding peace within yourself and your life. As an intern at Kansas City Counseling, my goal is to help you navigate the many challenges that life can throw your way. Through working together, I can help support you on this journey!

I graduated with my Bachelors of Social Work degree with a minor in psychology in the Spring of 2024 and am currently obtaining my Masters of Social Work degree, both through the University of Kansas. I have an interest in working with children and adolescents as well as utilizing therapeutic techniques such as CBT and play therapy. 

I am incredibly grateful to have the opportunity to support you on your therapeutic and life journey’s! I am also excited to utilize your expertise and experiences to provide you with mechanisms and an environment that allows you to work towards your goals!
