I started Self-Rising Counseling and Consultation because I believe that clients are the experts in their own lives and I genuinely love to help other people find happiness.

I received both my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology as well as my Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Bowling Green State University. I’ve always known that counseling was where I belonged, so I have used much of my educational and professional career to further my knowledge. I’ve worked in inpatient behavioral facilities, eating disorder clinics, college counseling, and private practice. I am currently a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with the State of Ohio.

In addition to self-reflection and hard work, self-care is incredibly important for your overall health and happiness. In my free time, I enjoy baking, finding new local coffee shops, spending time with friends/family, listening to music, and caring for my cats, Biscotti and Toast.
