If you’ve ever found yourself thinking, “I’ll be happy as long as everyone else is happy,” we should talk. I love working with clients to recognize and assert their own value and to create and maintain appropriate boundaries. I will sit with you in your pain and walk beside you as you grow and change. I enjoy building authentic relationships with clients and feel honored when they choose to share their stories with me.

I graduated with my Masters of Science in Social Work from The University of Texas at Austin in May of 2020. Since graduation, I have provided clinical services in an adolescent intensive outpatient program as well as a college counseling center. I have experience with various diagnoses and presenting issues. My areas of clinical interest include but are not limited to body justice and acceptance, individuation in young adulthood, and the equitable distribution of emotional labor in relationships.
