I work with clients who need support in making positive, lasting changes. Making change is simple, but not easy. I've helped many individuals over the years reach personal goals such as: healing trauma, rebuilding after loss, learning coping skills to manage anxiety, maintaining sobriety, setting boundaries in relationships, identifying & communicating feelings, & developing self-compassion. In our sessions, you can expect me to be relational; clients have described me as warm & easy to open up to. I'm passionate about helping people as they transition through & process difficult experiences.

Hello, and thanks for dropping by. Life can be incredibly lonely and harsh. My goal is to support you, gently and honestly, towards increased self respect and worthiness. Licensed since 1999, I have vast experience with children and adults. Depression, anxiety, complicated traumas and grief; issues regarding foster care and adoption; sexual abuse, parenting, and/or child welfare are areas I'm well versed in. I'm genuine, compassionate, and I tell it like it is. Most importantly, you deserve a therapist with whom you're comfortable. That search can be trying, but it's worthy because you are. I'd be honored to be that person.

It is my joy to work with teens, college students, adults and seniors. Common within these periods of life can be intense life transitions, loss and change. The journey through these stages can be full of tremendous amounts of pain, but are also unique opportunities to grow and develop new coping skills and strengths. I specialized in working with clients facing anxiety and pain due to loss, change, or trauma with a strength based approach.

With adults my focus is guiding them through life transitions of work, child birth, parenting, retirement, divorce, death of a loved one etc.
I offer you a 'strength based' therapy. I use support, introspection, assessment, direction and referral as a way to bring change to your life. We all experience loss, doubt, changes in our life beyond our control. For some people 'Therapy' is a place to re-charge. For others is it a vital experience needed to explore core issues ( trauma ) and re-organize their sense of self and move forward. I believe I offer a safe place online for you to grow. Online Zoom sesions only. I enjoy working on issues of anxiety, depression, relationships and parenting. I am a survivor of the Camp Fire and feel qualified to work with other survivors.
