I believe in working with the total person: mind, body, and spirit. I assist clients in finding their own personal strength, wisdom, and enlightenment. I have experience working with neurotypical and neurodiverse individuals, couples, and families struggling with a myriad of issues, including substance use, relationships, anxiety, grief, and trauma. I work with the client’s strengths while helping each to examine themself, their environment, and the relationship between the two. The change is in you. I am here to help.
I provide therapy aimed at reducing stress and anxiety, improving mood, sleep, relationships, and self-esteem, and learning constructive ways to express and cope with emotions such as anger. I welcome issues related to children, parenting, and family relationships. I can provide insight and understanding as well as the skills to make life changes.
I provide a non-judgmental, safe environment and I will work with you to create attainable goals that you yourself need and desire. Our partnership is designed to provide you with relief and coping skills that you will carry with you long after therapy ends.
