I hold a bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science with a minor in Psychology from Truman State University, and I am passionate about helping others through a holistic approach to wellness. While physical and nutritional health are crucial aspects of well-being, I believe that mental and emotional health are equally important pieces of the puzzle.

As a multiracial BIPOC woman who is adopted and neurodivergent, I understand the complexities of navigating spaces that may not always feel welcoming. I have personal experience with anxiety, depression, emotional eating, high achievement, perfectionism, and body image issues. I am dedicated to helping you work through these challenges as you build your identity and navigate various life transitions.

I’m also actively involved in research focusing on BIPOC and Black women in the eating disorder field, presenting my findings at conferences and regularly connecting with my community to offer support and resources. My commitment to advocacy and understanding drives my practice, and I am here to ensure that you feel seen and heard.

A significant part of my practice includes Christian counseling, and I value integrating faith into sessions for those who seek it. Whether you're looking for guidance through a faith-based lens or prefer to work without that focus, I am open and flexible to meet your needs. My priority is to provide a supportive, non-judgmental space where you feel empowered to explore and address whatever you bring to the table.

I am here to support you, no matter your background, beliefs, or experiences. Together, we will create a plan that aligns with your values and goals, and I’m honored to accompany you on this journey toward healing and growth.
