There are times in life when we reach a point in which positive change needs to occur. Perhaps you've been dealing with the same issue for a long time, or maybe new challenges have arisen that you need help navigating. If any of this applies to you or your child/teen, or if you're simply seeking to reach some desired goals, I hope that you will consider contacting me.
I provide individual counseling for a range of issues, including trauma and abuse, depression, anxiety, stress management, adoption-related issues, relationships, and adjustments and transitions. I also have over 12 years of experience working in adoption and foster care.
I enjoy working with adults, teens, and children over the age of 8. My approach is eclectic and each session is tailored to the unique needs of the individual. It is my desire to see every person rediscover hope and joy in their daily lives.
