My counseling services are designed to create a safe, compassionate, and engaging environment for individuals and families seeking support. With a strong foundation in both traditional therapeutic approaches and experiential methods, I tailor each session to meet the unique needs of my clients.

One of the core elements of my practice is play therapy, particularly for children. Through the use of toys, creative expression, and guided activities, play therapy allows children to process emotions, build coping skills, and communicate in ways that feel natural and empowering. It's a gentle yet powerful approach that helps young clients navigate challenges in a developmentally appropriate way.

Additionally, I incorporate animal-assisted therapy into sessions when appropriate. Whether it’s simply being in the calming presence of animals or engaging more directly through care or interaction, the connection between humans and animals can promote healing, trust, and emotional growth. Living on a working cattle farm allows me to uniquely integrate this experience into therapy, offering a peaceful, grounded setting that enhances therapeutic outcomes.

My approach is person-centered and rooted in empathy, authenticity, and collaboration. I work with children, adolescents, and adults, helping with a variety of concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma, behavioral challenges, and life transitions. Together, we’ll build on your strengths and work toward meaningful, lasting change—one step at a time.
