As the Founder of Salt + Light, I am committed to providing compassionate and personalized counseling for teens and adults navigating depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, life transitions, and relationship challenges. My goal is to offer a safe, supportive environment where clients feel heard, valued, and empowered to explore their roots and experience renewal through evidence-based clinical interventions. While my practice is grounded in Christian values, I tailor my approach to meet the unique needs and preferences of each client, incorporating faith-based perspectives only when requested. My mission is to foster healing, resilience, and personal growth for all who seek support, regardless of their background or beliefs.

I earned my Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Walden University. During my residency, I gained extensive experience in outpatient therapy for individuals, supervision, and clinical assessments within community-based programs, including mental health skill-building and intensive in-home services. I have experience working with diverse populations and utilizing individualized therapeutic techniques to facilitate meaningful change.

My passion for mental health stems from my personal experiences with depression and anxiety caused by trauma and life’s trials. Through deepening my relationship with God, learning effective coping strategies, and building a supportive community, I found healing and renewal. This transformative journey inspires my mission to guide others toward hope, growth, and renewed purpose.
