I specialize treating children 3-10 years old, but also individuals across the lifespan diagnosed with chronic illness/chronic pain (Fibromyalgia, MS, EDS, Lupus, T1 Diabetes), neurodivergence (Autism, ADHD, Sensory Sensitivities), and those with complex trauma histories.
I strive to meet my clients where they are at without judgment or expectation; to offer a guiding light in the storms of life and provide a safe harbor. My approach to therapy is to provide individuals with a person-centered and strengths-based partnership grounded in trauma-informed evidence-based practices.

My specialties include treatment of children, teens, and adults struggling with symptoms related to trauma, anxiety, depression/mood disorders, postpartum/perinatal disorders, life transitions, stress management, as well as grief and loss.
Thank you for visiting my page. Everyone needs help from time to time - sometimes things can just get tough. Navigating difficult symptoms, stressors, unsettling life events on our own can be challenging. Therapy can help you find relief and hope for a better tomorrow. Being vulnerable and discussing difficult areas of our lives can be hard to do - but the long term benefits of working on yourself are worth it… You are worth it! And I am here to help.

“The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction, not a destination.” (Carl Rodgers) We can’t change what we do not explore and the first step in the direction of that journey is always the hardest. But you are here already taking that step, looking for someone to assist with the change that you seek. Everyday life can be in the way of focusing on healing from our past, management of stress/mental health issues and making changes for our future. Setting aside time for yourself is important! You are important!
