For people that are hesitant to try therapy, what do you wish you could tell them?

Find someone that you feel comfortable with. Don't be afraid to call and speak to them briefly to see if they are a good fit. The most important thing is that you find someone who is not only an expert in their field, but someone who you can share openly with and feel comfortable talking to. 

Hi there! I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist providing online individual and couples therapy for those living in Indiana and Virginia. I specialize in relationship concerns such as communication difficulty, affairs and infidelity recovery, relational trauma, dating/marriage, premarital/marital counseling, and family systems. I also provide discernment counseling for couples who are unsure about their relationship and questioning divorce and separation. 

Therapy is for you! I am just here to guide you. You have autonomy on how often you'd like to meet, and what you want from each session. We work as a team to help you best. You are always allowed and encouraged to speak up about your wants and needs.

Helping people live a better life is my passion. It might mean managing anxiety symptoms, working through life transitions like entering motherhood, or helping you change behavioral patterns that are keeping you stuck. My goal is to help you feel better so you can feel confident in who you are!

If you’re feeling unsure about starting therapy, you’re not alone—and that hesitation makes sense. Reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, especially if you’ve been taught to carry things on your own. What I want you to know is this: therapy isn’t about being “broken” or having all the answers—it’s about giving yourself a safe space to breathe, be heard, and figure things out at your own pace. You don’t have to have a crisis to start. You don’t have to explain everything perfectly. You just have to show up—and we’ll meet you there, with compassion, patience, and no judgment. You deserve support. You deserve peace. And therapy can be a powerful first step toward both.

I whole heartedly believe everyone should try therapy at least once in their life. There is something truly wonderful about being able to completely open up to a supportive, empathetic, and unbiased individual. There is opportunity for new perspective, insight, and growth in ways we often don’t imagine.

There is a sentiment that was brought to popularity over the last two years: We are all weathering this storm but are not in the same boat. I have spent a lot of time contemplating this concept. One of the interpretations that sticks with me is that we are all human learning to navigate this life but often impacted by different things in different ways. Some people have yachts while others have canoes, some find themselves being tussled in the ocean while others are blessed to gleam across a lake, and some are fortunate to have life jackets while others have felt they had to learn to float alone. No matter each person’s, couple’s, or family’s circumstances we are all trying to navigate through life. Therapy is a safe and private space that I can hold for you where I may aid you in locating a life jacket, developing a crew, patch your boat, and learn to navigate the waters. Whether you find yourself in tousled waters or navigating a new path I would be pleased to work with you. I have enjoyed working with individuals, couples, and families of all different needs for years.

If you’re feeling unsure about starting therapy, you’re not alone—and your hesitation makes sense. Opening up to someone new can feel vulnerable, even scary. What I wish I could tell you is this: You don’t have to have everything figured out to begin. Therapy isn’t about being "broken" or needing to be "fixed"—it’s about having a safe space to be human, to feel, and to grow at your own pace. You deserve support simply because you exist, not because you’ve hit a breaking point. I will meet you with respect, not judgment—curiosity, not pressure. And even if it feels hard at first, the process can be incredibly healing. You're allowed to take your time. You're allowed to ask questions. And most importantly, you're allowed to be seen, heard, and supported just as you are.

If you’re hesitant about therapy, I want you to know it’s okay to feel unsure or nervous—that’s completely normal. Therapy isn’t about being “broken” or having all the answers; it’s about having a safe, supportive space to explore your thoughts, feelings, and challenges. You don’t have to face life’s difficulties alone. Even small steps in therapy can lead to meaningful insight, relief, and growth. It’s a place where your experiences are validated, your strengths are recognized, and you’re guided toward practical tools to feel more in control and at peace in your life.

I always say therapy is like going to the gym. You need to move your body to maintain health... just like the gym you need therapy to continue to maintain mental health and learn how to meet your needs.
