For as long as I can remember, I had a curiosity towards learning about people, emotions, and behaviors. The beginning of my own therapy journey at a young age allowed me to take that curiosity and turn it inward. Therapy shifted my whole world, empowering me to understand and come to love the person I am and embody the life I wanted to live.

 

Experiencing the transformative power of therapy inspired me to pursue a degree in psychology. After graduation, I worked in a different sector of the field, but felt myself wanting to become the therapist I needed growing up. From there, I returned to school to pursue my Master's, spent 10+ years deepening my approach in different settings, and ultimately founded my private practice to make that dream come true. I built Rise & Renew Counseling to be a space that nurtures your whole wellbeing: mind, body, and spirit. A space that is safe and brave, where you feel seen, supported, and gently challenged to step outside your comfort zone.
