MA, PLPC, Clinical Staff
Hey there, I’m Des! I know reaching out for support isn’t always easy, so I work hard to create a space where you can feel comfortable, accepted, and understood. My heart is for helping people work through life’s challenges, heal from painful experiences, and discover their own strength.
I enjoy working with children, teens, adults, couples, and families. Some of the areas I often focus on are trauma, grief, women’s issues, body image, self-esteem, anxiety, depression, and relationships. No two people are the same, so I take the time to get to know you and what works best for your life. I want our time together to feel supportive, encouraging, and real.
People I’ve worked with often tell me they feel at ease with me, and that I bring warmth and a down-to-earth approach. I believe in showing up as my authentic self and meeting you right where you are—without judgment. My goal is not just to help you cope, but to empower you to thrive and discover new possibilities for yourself and your life.
Outside of my work, I love traveling, dancing, and spending time outdoors on walks or hikes. I also enjoy being with my family and my dog, Spade, who keeps life fun and adventurous.
