I have dedicated my practice to helping my community's children, adolescents, adults, and families live the best lives possible. I have over 20 years of experience working with children and families in many different capacities. If you struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, mood changes, parenting, or other life challenges, come see me. Together, we will come up with strategies that allow you to address the root causes of your struggles.
My approach is client-centered and strengths-based, which means I work collaboratively with clients to achieve their goals and develop a plan. I believe that each of us is capable of growth and change. I am committed to helping my clients reach their full potential.

I use a person-centered approach in my practice. In the first session we will explore what brought you to therapy and then we will work together to create a plan that will lead to your success.
