Whether you are trying to navigate through school or balancing personal and/or professional relationships, it has always been my desire to assist people in reaching their goal of personal peace as they journey through their life path.

Each crisis in our lives is an opportunity for healing and growth.

An interactive and empathic therapist, I offer advice and support when needed, and I share my own experiences when I think they will be helpful. Though I have extensive, in-depth training, I rely greatly on intuition and humor in my work.
