I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, providing therapy services since 2019. I work with adults who are struggling with depression, anxiety, burnout, stress, or PTSD. I use Person-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, Equine Therapy, and Solution Focused Therapy. My style is warm and will help you to create and meet your goals.

Hi, great to meet you! I tend to work best with students who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of themselves. You might be juggling school, relationships, family expectations, or just trying to figure out who you are and where you’re headed. Maybe you’ve been dealing with stress, anxiety, low mood, or feeling like you’re “not enough,” even if things look fine on the outside. A lot of the students I work with are thoughtful, caring people who put pressure on themselves and don’t always give themselves the same understanding they give others. Some are going through big transitions, breakups, or identity questions. Others just feel off and aren’t sure why. If you’re looking for a space where you can be real, feel heard, and sort things out at your own pace, we’d likely be a good fit. Let's connect.

The passage into young adulthood can be both daunting and exciting. The stresses and joys of being independent can become overwhelming at times as one continues to figure out where school, friend, and family balance come into play to create a satisfying life. I have helped many through the twists and turns of anxiety, depression, grief/loss, family and friend dynamics, as well as helping those with mood and personality disorders. You don't have to navigate these struggles alone!

Have you been feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or like you're running on empty? Maybe you're anxious, down, or trying to heal from painful experiences that still echo into your present. Perhaps you’re struggling to find your rhythm in a fast-moving world, or questioning your direction altogether. Life can feel especially heavy when you’re carrying it alone. But here’s the thing—you don’t have to. It's okay to be unsure or even scared about starting this journey. What matters most is that you're here, looking for a new way forward. And we're here to walk alongside you. We provide culturally responsive, trauma-informed, and evidence-based therapy for adults navigating emotional and psychological challenges. We are a social justice oriented psychotherapy collective, committed to creating a safe, inclusive space for all clients to explore their lived experiences.

Healing takes courage—and you don’t have to do it alone. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor offering telehealth sessions across Wisconsin, and I specialize in supporting college students and young adults who feel stuck, anxious, or disconnected from themselves. My own healing journey has shaped the way I show up in therapy: real, compassionate, and non-judgmental. I know what it’s like to face pain and choose growth, and I create a space where you can feel seen, understood, and empowered to make lasting change. Life can feel overwhelming. Between academic pressures, relationships, family expectations, and figuring it all out, it’s easy to feel weighed down or anxious. In therapy, we’ll explore what’s holding you back, uncover patterns that no longer serve you, and develop practical tools to manage stress, build resilience, and reconnect with your inner strength. This is a collaborative space where your voice matters, your feelings are valid, and your growth is the priority. I use a variety of evidence-based therapies including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), psychodynamic therapy, and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), combined with mindfulness, body awareness, and practical coping strategies. I help young adults break free from old patterns, process what hurts, and build confidence, clarity, and resilience—supporting healing on every level: mind, body, and spirit. I bring authenticity, empathy, and even a touch of humor to sessions so you can feel safe, challenged, and supported as you grow. In our first session, we’ll talk about what brought you to therapy, clarify your goals, and begin shaping a personalized plan that works for your life. Flexible telehealth sessions make it easy to start from anywhere—dorm, apartment, or home. Together, we’ll take intentional steps toward healing, growth, and empowerment. Whether it’s anxiety, trauma, grief, or simply feeling stuck, therapy can be a turning point—and I’ll be here to walk alongside you. Your next chapter starts here.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker/Psychotherapist and Pastoral Counselor. My counseling approach is integrative and client centered. I specialize in a brief, solution-focused cognitive behavioral model of therapy. I will be a faithful companion both as a clinician and a pastor on your journey to hope and healing providing a holistic approach to mental, emotional, and spiritual health. I will be sensitive to your personal, cultural, social needs and religious backgrounds and values. Together we will discover the cause, recognize triggers and develop healthy coping strategies to affect the change you desire. My work focuses primarily on individual growth, relationships, couple, marriage and family. I provide services to adolescents and adults in the treatment of anxiety disorders, depression, trauma, anger management, and grief and loss.

At Inner Edge Psychotherapy, I help students and young adults navigate stress, anxiety, and life transitions, drawing on over 14 years as a school counselor and 3 years in private therapy practice. Whether you’re adjusting to college, managing relationships, or facing a specific challenge, I provide support that fits your needs—including single-session therapy for students who want help with one issue without committing to ongoing care. Together, we use practical strategies and mind‑body techniques to help you feel calmer, more in control, and ready to tackle life’s ups and downs. If you’re looking for a safe space to gain clarity, build resilience, and find balance—even in just one session—you’ll feel at home here.

I started Influential Connections Counseling, after having worked 11 years with adults and families in the human service areas of abuse, neglect, trauma, substance abuse, domestic violence, relationship challenges, and various mental health diagnoses. I am a licensed marriage and family therapist and certified social worker. I believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship. A relationship that relies on trust, connection, empathy, and mutual respect. It can take time to build the therapeutic relationship.
