As a counselor, my journey is intertwined with families, postnatal depression, anxiety, hoarding, and parenting challenges. I create safe spaces for families, fostering understanding. Specializing in postnatal issues, I empower mothers and families with tools to navigate this phase. Compassion guides my work with hoarding, offering decluttering solutions. I help parents navigate the complexities of modern life, nurturing strong family bonds. My commitment is unwavering, aiming for growth, resilience, and healing in every individual and family I serve.
Specializing in counseling, I focus on families, addressing hoarding concerns, parenting issues, and postpartum challenges. My goal is to foster healing, growth, and resilience within these vital aspects of individuals' lives. I use a systemic model for addressing your difficulties looking at all areas of your life.
Everything I do in a session comes back to the premise of "unconditional positive regard" no matter what your struggles are and what you have done you are worthy to make a change. I get great joy out of helping others and providing people with a safe place to be able to share their stories and heal from their struggles. I look forward to working with you.
