Who I Am
I am a dedicated and compassionate counselor committed to providing inclusive, safe, and evidence-based mental health support. With a deep belief in the power of connection and understanding, I create a safe and welcoming space where clients can explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences without fear of judgment. My approach is collaborative and holistic, focusing on the unique needs of each individual, couple, or family I work with. Whether guiding clients through life transitions, healing from past wounds, or developing coping strategies for present challenges, my goal is to empower each person to find clarity, resilience, and self-acceptance.
My work is rooted in the belief that every person deserves to be treated with dignity, kindness, and respect. I strive to help clients feel valued, understood, and supported in their personal growth. No matter where you are on your journey, you are welcome here.
The story behind p-pod therapy
The name P-Pod Therapy is more than just a title—it’s rooted in generations of love, growth, and connection.
Long before the idea of starting a therapy practice ever came to life, there was a small stretch of land in the countryside called the P-Pod Ranch. It’s where my husband grew up—running barefoot through tall grass, learning to ride horses before he could ride a bike, and soaking up the kind of peace only nature can offer. The name “P-Pod” came from his family’s nickname for the place, a nod to their last name and the way they always seemed to stick together like peas in a pod.
Years later, that same ranch is where our children now play. They chase the same trails, feed the same animals, and fall asleep under the same wide sky. It’s become a symbol for us—not just of home, but of what it means to feel safe, seen, and connected.
That’s what I hope to create through P-Pod Therapy. A space where people feel held, not just in comfort, but in growth. Where healing is grounded in belonging. And where, like our little ranch, every person who walks through the door is reminded that they’re never alone in the pod.
That’s the heart of P-Pod Therapy—family roots, deep peace, and the power of connection.
