Depression, anxiety, and life transitions can quietly erode your sense of self — leaving you overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or disconnected from the people and routines that once felt grounding. Racing thoughts, lost motivation, and the weight of change can make it hard to see a way forward. With an MA in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University and over 25 years of experience, I work with clients ages 4 and up who are navigating exactly these moments. I bring deep compassion to this work, and I believe that healing is possible — even when it feels far away.

I'm energized working with moms and adult women who have been struggling to manage anxiety, stress, or are recognizing they may be neurodivergent (ADHD, AuDHD, or autistic). If you've been labeled too sensitive or gifted, burnout as an adult tends to be more common these days. I'm happy to offer support for your struggles and offer a different way of approaching everyday life.

Is your child struggling at home, school, or friendships? Does anxiety, anger, tantrums, or sadness seem to disable them? Whether it is huge outbursts of emotions, being overly quiet or shut down, I equip kids & parents to overcome hurdles & live with more confidence. A child's behavior is their way of communicating with you. Together we can work on understanding what your child is "saying". Getting help for your child shows how much you care for them!

Coping with anxiety, depression, grief, and loss or the adjustment to a chronic illness can be an isolating and emotional journey. You may find yourself overwhelmed by uncertainty, struggling with loss, or navigating a new reality that feels difficult to accept. These experiences can impact your sense of stability, making it hard to find peace in daily life.

Hi There! Thanks for visiting my profile. I don't need to tell you that I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist because I am sure you have already read that in the heading of my profile. What that heading doesn't say is that I am a wife and a mom and I completely understand the rewards and challenges we face daily in both those roles. While I do work with various populations, it is my role as a wife and a mom that have lead me to specialize in working with children and families in various capacities. .

Life can change quickly, sometimes in ways we expect, and sometimes in ways we don’t. If you're navigating a season of uncertainty, loss, or new beginnings, you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to help you find clarity, steadiness, and a path forward.
I support adults moving through major life transitions, including graduating college, career changes or workplace stress, relationship shifts, breakups, or divorce, becoming a parent, empty nest or midlife transitions and retirement.

I believe that healing happens when we pay attention to all the parts that make us whole—our mind, body, and soul. My theoretical orientation is influenced by Family Systems, Attachment Theory, Emotionally-Focused, Humanistic-Experiential, and Narrative approaches to treatment. This means that we will be going on an emotional journey together in which I will use an eclectic combination of clinical theories and techniques to help guide my work. I believe that the lack of emotional awareness and avoiding uncomfortable emotions can cause harm to our mind, body, and soul. My hope is to help you get to know yourself better.

I believe the two major problem areas we face in life deal with our relationships and our coping; and the main factors influencing how we manage these issues relies on our attachment style, trauma history, and our emotional intelligence, or lack there-of. My job is to help unlock the unconscious- help bring awareness to these issues and how they may be negatively impacting your life and relationships. Essentially, my aim is to assist you in identifying and allowing yourself to express emotions, and learn to tolerate/manage anxiety and discomfort, rather than self-soothe in various, unsafe ways that are causing problems in your life.
