I’m grateful for your bravery in taking the first step to connect...

College, while rewarding and enjoyable, can also be a really stressful experience. You are expected to juggle a full course load, a social life, often a job, and sometimes family stressors, all at the same time. I bet you would agree it can be overwhelming. I get it (really, I do), and I want to support you. I’m a strong believer in self-care and creating a realistic and healthy life-school-work balance. I want to help you remember that your mental health and well-being are the most important fa...

But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to understand why this is happening. You are ready to feel at ease and satisfied with your life. Most of all, you’re ready to feel confident...

From the St. Lawrence Center at the University of Kansas to my clinical studies at Divine Mercy University in Washington DC, I have been fascinated by the balance between the spiritual and mental life within the human person. My time with the Apostles of the Interior Life in Rome, Italy and the year of formation in the seminary at the University of St. Mary of the Lake at Mundeleine, IL set the tone for my philosophical and theological mindset. I was then blessed to find my true calling to cli...
Let's just be honest... young adulthood is rough! This period in life is often characterized by identity confusion, low self-esteem, difficulty regulating emotions, behavioral concerns, and many more challenges that the average young person isn't equipped to handle on their own. I definitely didn't know what to do when I experienced these hurdles as an adolescent and young adult. To this day, I still have to ask for help every once in a while! If you are beginning the process of finding help for...
