PREVIOUS
-
I was a certified life coach while attending Texas Tech University for my undergraduate degree in psychology (I narrowly missed the Patrick Mahomes era while attending but saw him in action).
-
I received my LMFTa (developmental license) in 2010 after an intensive masters degree program that included doing therapy.
-
After graduation, I moved to Indiana and started the process of gaining extensive hours and supervision and was fully licensed in Indiana in 2012.
-
Since becoming fully licensed I have worked in community mental health and wellness centers
-
In 2016 I established a private practice in Indiana.
Now I have moved to the Kansas City area, and I am excited to meet you!
