Why I decided to be a therapist.
My passion in this field came from my personal experiences as an eldest daughter, teen mom, brain tumor survivor, and a woman who struggled with secondary infertility. I understand firsthand the complexities of life transitions, resilience, and personal growth. I'm a proud mom of an adult daughter in her 20's, which gives me insight into relationships with adult children, family dynamics, and generational perspectives.
In my experience undergoing brain surgery and fertility treatments, I was left with the lingering questions, doubts, fear, anxiety, and disconnect from myself and others. I sought healing and clarity from others who were supportive but lacked understanding. This left me feeling alone and misunderstood. I understand firsthand the importance of having someone who has gone through similar experiences next to you and supporting you which is why I have chosen this path to help others in their therapy journey.
