I’m a Social Worker who combines clinical experience with real-world strategies to help people carve out their unique path. My background spans everything from psychiatric hospitals and HR to higher education and workforce agencies, allowing me to create truly practical, insightful solutions.

After living in Michigan, Canada, and Texas, I can confidently say I know how to weather any storm, blizzard, or hurricane! Outside of my practice, I’m a creative 40-something wife, mother, and animal lover who believes in finding joy and connection in the everyday.
