My Story

I have always been fascinated with the human mind. There's just something incredibly beautiful and complex about it, and how each individual person operates differently through their own unique lens.

I turned my interest into a reality when I double majored in English literature and Psychology. I became captivated by the intricacies of the human mind. I fell in love with the stories and how people overcame their struggles. I found myself analyzing the characters in the books I was reading, digging deep into their personalities and psyches.

I yearned to understand who they were and what shaped their world.

"I subscribe to the philosophy that we have all been wounded in some way, and that with the right tools and safe therapeutic relationship, we have this magnificent capacity to heal.”

Because of my love of stories, I almost became an English literature professor, but I was going through a really hard time in my life, and I didn't feel inspired.

I was constantly anxious, questioning myself, and fearful of my future. To top it off, I was going through my own addiction problems. I found myself becoming one of those tragic characters in a book that you wish didn’t become your reality. But, with every tragic story, there's always a triumph, which inspired me to figure out how I could help myself and help heal others.

I went through the full course of treatment and experienced biofeedback, reiki, EMDR, equine therapy, process groups, and individual therapy sessions and learned what it takes to get on the path to feeling eternally well. This experience inspired me to begin my career working as a primary care therapist at an inpatient facility.

I learned and watched other therapists, assisted, ran groups, and had my own caseload. I immediately felt connected with clients and learned from them. I was authentic, able to engage easily, and felt that I was of service. I was grateful for the experience and realized that I was able to help them carry the pain so that it could feel lighter.

After working for many years in detox centers, training in Psychodrama at Onsite, becoming a clinical director, and earning certification in CBT, psychodrama, Imago, and brain spotting, I was ready to build my own program from someone who has been through it themselves. This is what inspired me to start my own practice, Eternal Wellness Counseling.

I pushed through my own self-limiting beliefs while also utilizing my skills to treat individuals, couples, and families struggling with relationship issues, anxiety, depression, codependency, trauma, and ADD through my experiential skill set.
