Mental Wellness is paramount. It is just as important, if not more than our physical health. Depression, anxiety, adjustment issues, trauma, and all the others don't define you as a person Life can be challenging, but it's how we get through those challenges. Relationships can be challenging. Are you experiencing difficulties building lasting relationships? Do you feel stuck with no direction? Are you a high performing employee or entrepreneur that’s tapped out/burnout? Do people have difficulty understanding or relating to you? Is there family conflict that has you stressed? Let me help you in a safe and judgement free atmopshere.

We all stumble and need a helping hand. Counseling is a chance to learn new ways to cope with depression, anxiety, trauma, and a multitude of issues. I would love to help you navigate your thoughts and emotions and offer a new way forward. My ideal client is any teen or adult, who needs a safe place to explore their thoughts and feelings with an experienced therapist.

Life throws us curveballs...and sometimes we realize that our old ways of coping just aren't working anymore. Counseling can be immensely helpful in getting back on track or adjusting to new life circumstances that are beyond our control. Learning new ways to engage problems, improve relationships, and deal with our negative feelings can be very beneficial to establishing and maintaining health, wellbeing, and happiness--so that the life we are living is one we truly want to be in! I specialize in personal and relationship issues, coping with changes, and seasons of depression and anxiety.

My ideal client is any adult or teen experiencing any sort of issue related to their family or relationships. I enjoy helping those with anxiety, depression and stress to overcome those and get to their personal best.

As a person in a painful relationship with someone close, or with yourself, you often ask what else you can do to make things better. It seems you have tried everything and everything has failed. You feel misunderstood and exhausted. In romance, love has died or is dying. As a parent, you know your child’s potential and wonder where it has gone. In addiction, anxiety, depression, or grief, you feel stuck and live with little hope of change. It is difficult to reach out and ask for help. Will you be able to connect with and benefit from a counselor?

The decision to seek therapy is a life-changing choice. It shows you are ready to face unresolved pain OR issues that may have made you feel hopeless. Allowing yourself to be vulnerable will lead to new thinking and behavior patterns. I provide therapy to individuals, families, geriatric, small groups, LGBTQIA, and people of color struggling with historical trauma, PTSD, medical diagnosis, depressed moods, anxiety, grief, desiring personal growth, divorce, single parenting, blended families, break-ups, shame, and humiliation.
