Welcome to Heartwood.
Here to hear you, here to help you.
For the girls finding their way.
Hi! I’m glad you’re here.
I provide counseling for teen girls, women, and female athletes (I see you!), who are trying to make sense of who they are and what they’re going through. This often includes anxiety, friendship or relationship struggles, sports performance pressure, perfectionism, people pleasing, and questions around self-worth.
With empathy and genuine care, I create a welcoming space where you feel fully seen, heard, and supported on your journey. If faith is a part of your story, I welcome it gently and respectfully, always honoring your unique pace and beliefs. If it is not part of your story, that’s okay too.
As a woman and former athlete myself, I know firsthand the mental and emotional strength it takes to hold it all together and the fear of it all falling apart no matter how hard you try.
My hope is to help you reconnect with who you were created to be: worthy, loved, and enough, just as you are.
“Shared joy is double joy, shared sorrow is half a sorrow.”
Therapy offers the opportunity to multiply your joy and lighten your burdens, because healing is stronger when it’s shared.
Walking into my office feels like settling into a warm, safe corner. A place where you can be your true self, gently explore your emotions, and grow at a pace that honors your unique story.
Together, we can embrace the hope that growth and healing are always possible.
