You’re in the “prime years of your life,” but instead of feeling fulfilled, you feel overwhelmed by emptiness, anxiety, or even deep sadness. You may be working hard to show up as the most polished version of yourself - in your career, relationships, or as a mother - but inside you’re struggling. You may feel like you’re hanging on by a thread, uncertain about how much longer you can keep it together, and burdened by the voice telling you you're not enough.

Do you question yourself in your work, in singleness or your relationship, or as a mom?  Is there a voice inside telling you you’re not doing it right?  Not achieving enough?  Letting something slip?  Are you feel stuck in self-judgment, insecurity, or imposter syndrome?  Do you feeling the pressure of trying to control everything, only to feel more disconnected from your true self?  If this is you, you’ve come to the right place.

Life can feel especially complicated for women in their 20s, 30s, and 40s— these decades are filled with life transitions, milestones, and relationship shifts—and often, it’s during these times that childhood wounds or past trauma resurface. On top of this, the constant barrage of information and the pressures of social media, leave many women in a comparison trap feeling more inadequate, lonely, anxious, and uncertain about who they really are.

I understand!  My work focuses on helping high achievers like you successfully navigate these decades to feel like yourself again (or for the first time) and experience the fulfillment you desire.

Together, we’ll explore your worth and purpose, heal old wounds, and transform false beliefs into new truths so you can thrive in your life and relationships.

Until junior high, my family lived overseas and I attended a small international school with students from around the world. Our community was small, so these were my dear friends, and their families were extensions of my own.  We instinctively bonded over our similarities, although we couldn’t have been more different. This fostered within me an inquisitiveness about people’s stories: what makes us so vastly different, and what makes us so humanly the same in the experiences of joy, contentment, pain, and heartache?

I obtained my Bachelor’s in Human Relations at The University of Oklahoma and am a graduate of TWU’s Master’s in Counseling & Development program, with a focus in Clinical Mental Health.  Throughout my years in private practice, I have developed specialties helping women manage anxiety, family of origin concerns, self-esteem issues, and life transitions, such as relationship changes, career demands, marriage, pregnancy, postpartum, and motherhood.

I help women who are self described high achievers and perfectionists trying to juggle it all. I work with my clients to navigate their stress, anxiety, and burnout, and the heavy pressure they feel in their relationships, careers, or as mothers. Together, we will pursue self-understanding so you can experience greater connection to yourself, and achieve deeper fulfillment in your relationships, profession, and motherhood.

When I founded Known Counseling in 2018, the right name was very important to me. Only one fit and it came from my experience of therapy as the client where I learned firsthand the value of vulnerability, acceptance, and understanding how my past was impacting my present. I wanted to create a space where people could gain insight into their stories to live a more fulfilled life, while experiencing genuine compassion and connection. Knowing yourself and being known by someone else became my greatest hope for the clients that walked through our doors.  It is my greatest hope for you.

I am Primal Question Certified, which allows me to help you understand your deepest emotional needs, unlock your unique gifts, and reach your goals. At your core, you have a primal question—an emotional need that drives how you see yourself and interact with the world. When your question is answered healthily, you’re your best self. But when it isn’t, you may find yourself using coping mechanisms like people-pleasing, perfectionism, or control in an attempt to feel secure and loved. By understanding your Primal Question, we can identify the roots of your struggles and work to answer that question in a healthier, more fulfilling way.

I am a Christian counselor, however, I welcome individuals from all backgrounds, belief systems, and walks of life.  I will create an accepting, unbiased, and non-judgmental atmosphere that allows you to be yourself, process life’s difficulties, and reach your goals incorporating whatever faith beliefs you hold.  

If you’re ready to rediscover yourself and start living the life you’ve always dreamed of, contact me today. My hope is that through understanding your story, you can live more contently, joyfully, and authentically. Put down the facade of having it all together — come as you are, and we’ll walk this journey together.
