As a school‑based licensed mental health therapist, helping children feel better at school is my main goal. I work closely with teachers and families to support each child’s needs.

I am dedicated to providing individualized, strengths‑based care for children, teens, and their families. I believe every child has unique strengths, and my goal is to help them recognize those strengths while building the skills and confidence needed to support their mental and behavioral health. I strive to create a supportive and engaging environment where youth feel safe, respected, and heard. My approach is creative, interactive, and tailored to each child’s needs. I work collaboratively with families to help children build coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and strengthen resilience. I have specialized training in trauma‑focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF‑CBT) and motivational interviewing to support youth navigating trauma, emotional challenges, or behavioral concerns.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family and pets. I love playing card and board games, watching Wisconsin sports, riding my horse, and being outdoors. In the summer, you can often find me on the water or exploring local trails.
