I want to offer you the support we all require, to consciously begin your journey to own your power to change your life.

Remaining mindful, open, motivated, and passionate, both about who you are, and the people and things that you love, requires ongoing focus and attention to self.

I specialize in treating children, teens and young adults struggling with anxiety, OCD and specific fears/phobias. Parenting an anxious child can be very challenging! Our children's anxiety, OCD and specific fears/phobias can cause us to believe we are doing something wrong. Even worse, it can cause our children to feel like they are as well. Our child's anxiety can make everyday tasks, like going to school, extremely difficult. Family life can become disrupted and parenting can feel overwhelming and stressful.
