I am here to listen to you. I work with children, teens, and adults to support exploration of difficult issues and life changes.

Being a child or teen right now is hard, with a lot of pressure and emotions dealing with school, friendships, social media, family, and their future.

I strive to always provide a warm space, where you and your child feel safe to be vulnerable and work towards your goals.
