Meet Your Therapist
I believe in creating a non-judgmental space founded in collaboration and empathy. I work to highlight my clients strengths, honor their experiences, and focus on tailoring each session to fit the individual(s) in front of me. I want to help you achieve the meaningful, fulfilling life that you want.
My areas of specialty include couples and relational issues, anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions and stress. To learn more check out the Services Tab on my website.

I have a Bachelors of Arts in Psychology with a Minor in Human Development and Family Studies from the University of Alabama in 2021.
I have a Masters of Science in Human Development and Family Studies with a Concentration in Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of Alabama in 2023.
For the past 2 years I have worked at a private practice, as well as a community clinic in Tuscaloosa, AL. During my time at these therapy offices I worked with a very diverse population and provided therapy for couples, individuals, families, and children.
I am currently on the roster of non-licensed and non-certified psychotherapists per Vermont rules and regulations. I have been working towards full licensure under the supervision of Cynthia Stanford, LMFT, for the past 3 years.

With so many different types of therapists and counselors, I love to provide extra education into what “MFT” means:
Marriage and Family Therapy is a field focused on the interconnectedness of relationships and mental health.
Marriage and Family therapists (MFTs), work to address how the systems in one’s life (family, social, broader systems, etc…) have an impact on one’s mental health.
MFTs broaden the individualistic view of therapy to attend to the role these systems and relationships play in one’s world.
