I'm a Navy veteran, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, wife, and mother. I've worn a lot of hats, faced my share of battles, and learned that life rarely goes according to plan. I've faced adversity, uncertainty, loss, and challenges that tested every ounce of my strength and faith. Those experiences taught me something powerful: resilience isn't about never getting knocked down. It's about finding the courage to get back up and keep moving forward.

​

My faith in God has been my foundation. Through His grace, perseverance, discipline, and a refusal to give up, I've navigated some of life's toughest seasons. Those experiences didn't just shape who I am; they shaped the way I show up for others.

As a therapist, I believe meaningful change is possible, but it doesn't happen by standing still. I created Anchor & Bloom to help people move beyond simply surviving and start building the resilience, confidence, and inner strength to truly live. Because understanding what's holding you back is only the beginning. Doing something about it is where growth happens.

​

My approach is compassionate, trauma-informed, and rooted in both grace and accountability. I believe in creating a space where you can be vulnerable without judgment, but also challenged to confront the thoughts, behaviors, and patterns keeping you stuck. I'll meet you where you are, but I'll also encourage you to recognize what you're capable of becoming. I'll meet you where you are, but I'll also encourage you to recognize what you're capable of becoming.

​

Military service taught me commitment, discipline, service, and grit. Being a wife and mother taught me love, sacrifice, patience, and the importance of showing up for the people who matter most. Life taught me that strength isn't about doing everything alone. Sometimes, the strongest thing you can do is ask for help, face what's difficult, and refuse to let your circumstances write the rest of your story.

​

My hope is that every person who walks through these doors leaves with a deeper understanding of themselves, stronger tools to navigate life's challenges, and a renewed belief in what's possible. Your past may have shaped you, but it doesn't have to define you.

​

My mission is simple: help people reclaim their strength, build resilience, and move forward with purpose. Grounded in faith, driven by compassion, and built on the belief that real change takes courage, commitment, and work.
