The pandemic was hard on all of us. If you feel like you need some support or help to desal the last couple of years, I'm here. We all need help occasionally. Learning how to approach and overcome these challenges shape us and allow us to experience life to the fullest. Therapy allows us to look at where we may be blocked and helps us find our own answers to living an authentic life.

We all come to points in life when we realize something needs to change. Whether you are experiencing conflict, anger, depression, stress, or loss, counseling can help. We can't always control what life throws at us, but in counseling we learn to respond in new ways to reduce suffering, increase happiness and improve our health and relationships. Counseling can reduce stress, heal trauma and loss, increase healthy connections and help life feel more managable. If you are ready to make positive changes, I would love to help you.

Who am I? Why am I here? Where am I going? These are a few of the questions that most people ask when they are in a time of struggle or change. We find ourselves searching for concrete answers but often find ourselves in shifting sand. We internalize this and feel like there is something wrong with us. We all encounter times of grief whether from the loss of a loved one, the loss of a job, loss of faith, etc. You deserve to talk with someone who can help you find your strengths as you navigate what may feel like an entirely new world. You don't have to do this alone.

A confidential place just for you - free from the distractions of work, responsibilities, family and other people's agendas. My goal is to meet you exactly where you are at, and to support you in the ways that you need.
