With 20+ years in human services and over 10 years as a Licensed Social Worker, I provide counseling for children as young as 3 years old to parents, families, and adults. Whether there are behavioral, developmental/physical disabilities, anxiety, depression, stressors of life, my style is warm and practical, using evidence-based strategies to reduce stress, build coping skills, and restore balance.

I’ve supported children, parents, and families in schools, clinics, and community programs. I understand how caregiving can bring stress, worry, frustration, and guilt while you try to stay strong for your child. My goal is to provide a safe, compassionate space to process emotions, build coping skills, and reconnect with your well-being.

I also work with adults managing anxiety, depression, or life transitions. Whether you’re a parent balancing caregiving or an individual seeking relief from stress, I provide empathy, practical tools, and strengths-based support to help you build resilience, reduce overwhelm, and move forward with confidence and peace.
