As of December 2025 I am accepting new clients! My passion is helping people heal from depression, anxiety, grief and burnout. It can feel difficult or impossible to show up as your best self when you feel sad, depressed, anxious or irritable all the time. I am here to help you navigate life. While I work with all adults, my practice has a special focus on identifying and manage feelings, men's issues, support for minority-related stress, and integrating spirituality and therapy. I previously worked at a hospice agency, offering spiritual and emotional support and grief counseling.
I imagine therapy as a bicycle: the pedals are experiences in the present and the past, and the handlebars point toward the future. Together we work on helping you move toward the future you desire. Sessions often focus on an immediate concern, and then explore the long-term thoughts and feelings that keep you stuck.
The times when I most needed help were the times it was the hardest to ask. I'm glad you are taking the step to find more support. I'd love to to see if we might be a good fit working together. Please call, email, or visit my website to schedule a no-fee consultation!
