It is my privilege to join you on this journey of self-discovery and growth, through the joy and the pain of life, loss and actualization. I will work with you to achieve the goals you want to accomplish. There is no concern too big or too small that we cannot take on together.
I work with clients ages 12 through adult. I use an eclectic approach to best fit your needs. I have experience working with children, parent coaching, chronic pain and illness, trauma, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, personality disorders, psychosis, pet parent grief and loss, veterinarian and vet staff mental health.
As we all struggle to face our individual stressors, traumas, challenges, and needs; my goal is to help you lighten that burden. Whether you have sought therapy in the past, or are unsure what to expect, you are here in this moment for a reason. Feel free to contact me with questions or to be connected for services.
