Owner, Cadence Psychology Studio
I specialize in therapy for high-achieving professionals, physicians, therapists, and parents who appear capable on the outside but feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or quietly exhausted internally.
My work focuses on helping driven, emotionally attuned individuals and couples reconnect with themselves, their relationships, and the life they want to live.
Even before I began my doctoral training in psychology, I was drawn to the power of healing, the importance of connection, and the journey toward living as our most authentic selves.
But life has a way of piling on stress, self-doubt, and expectations. Anxiety, perfectionism, burnout, or relationship struggles can leave even the most capable, high-achieving people feeling exhausted and stuck. If you’re carrying these pressures, you don’t have to carry them alone.
Who I
Work With
I work with people who are balancing a lot — and who often feel they need to “hold it all together” on the outside while struggling internally. I specialize in supporting high achievers and couples, and I value working with a people from a wide range of backgrounds and life experiences. My clients include:
-
Busy professionals & high achievers: executives, physicians, attorneys, academics, entrepreneurs, psychologists
-
Couples (those in monogamous, poly, open, and ENM relationships)
-
Creatives and highly sensitive people (HSPs)
-
Parents of highly sensitive children (HSCs)
-
LGBTQIA+ individuals and couples
-
Moms and dads breaking generational cycles
-
Individuals and couples impacted by ADHD
If you recognize yourself in these descriptions — accomplished but exhausted, capable but stretched thin, yearning for more clarity and connection — I may be a good fit for you.
What Therapy With Me Feels Like
Clients describe me as warm, intuitive, and collaborative. I strive to create a space where you can bring the full range of your thoughts, emotions, and experiences without fear of judgment. My goal is for you to feel genuinely seen and supported while also being gently challenged to examine the patterns that may be keeping you stuck.
I believe effective therapy is both a science and an art. Research provides the foundation, while curiosity, compassion, and a deep understanding of your unique experiences guide the work we do together.
I integrate a variety of research-supported approaches tailored to your individual needs and goals. Depending on what we’re working toward, I may draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Internal Family Systems (IFS).
With couples, I integrate principles from Integrative Behavioral Couple Therapy (IBCT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and the Gottman Method to help partners better understand their relationship, strengthen emotional connection, and create lasting patterns of change.
Together, these approaches create a therapy experience that is both practical and reflective. You’ll leave with strategies to navigate daily life while also having space to explore deeper questions of identity, meaning, and connection.
What Clients Often Experience
Many clients arrive carrying anxiety, burnout, or the pressure to keep everything together. We dig beneath those layers to uncover the patterns and beliefs that keep you in cycles that no longer serve you.
-
Individuals often find relief from anxiety and chronic striving, building greater calm and self-compassion.
-
Couples learn to slow down, communicate more openly, and rebuild trust and intimacy.
-
High achievers discover ways to feel more authentic and aligned, without sacrificing their peace.
Over time, clients describe feeling lighter and more connected—to themselves, their relationships, and the life they want to create.
What I Help With
Areas of Focus
-
Anxiety, imposter syndrome, and the pressure to “hold it all together”

Perfectionism, burnout, and work-life imbalance

-
Relationship challenges, intimacy concerns, and discernment about staying together
-
Spiritual crises and religious trauma
-

Specialty Areas
-
Anxiety: Often a cover for deeper emotional pain, anxiety may have fueled your success but can also drain your energy. Together, we'll get to the root of what's underneath so you can live with greater ease and clarity.
-
Trauma & Attachment Wounds: I specialize in healing childhood experiences of neglect, abuse, or disconnection. Using EMDR and relational approaches, I help clients explore how past wounds shape present patterns, integrate painful memories, and move toward a deeper sense of wholeness.
-
Couples Therapy: I enjoy working with couples who deeply care for one another but feel stuck in conflict, disconnection, or sexual concerns. Together, we create space for honest conversation and meaningful reconnection.
-
High Achievers: I support high achievers who appear “fine” on the outside but feel drained or disconnected inside. Together, we pause, identify the patterns driving overfunctioning, and reconnect your ambition and success with your core values so life feels sustainable and true to you.

My Background
I came to psychology as a second career, though the path began much earlier. Across my experiences in design, teaching, and nonprofit work, a common thread emerged: a commitment to creating spaces where people can grow and flourish. When I discovered counseling psychology, everything clicked into place. It felt deeply aligned with who I am and the work I was meant to do.
I specialized in psychological assessment during my doctoral training, which continues to shape how I practice therapy today. Learning to thoughtfully understand each person’s unique strengths, challenges, and patterns taught me the value of careful assessment before intervention. While I ultimately discovered that my passion lies in therapy, my background in assessment remains central to my work—particularly with couples, where developing a comprehensive understanding of the relationship allows therapy to move forward with clarity, intention, and purpose.
I earned my PhD in Counseling Psychology from Ball State University, my MA in Counseling Psychology from Western Michigan University, and my BS in Interior Design from Ball State University.
