My 25+ years of experience includes working with survivors of trauma and violence; intimate partner violence; depression; anxiety and panic; stress management; individuals with histories in foster care; infertility; and parenting- particularly single parenting.

I focus therapy on self-esteem, self-worth, intrapersonal and interpersonal communication, empowerment and fostering relationships.

I have over 20 years of experience effectively helping children, teens, and adults with a wide variety of issues. The majority of my work has been treating depression, anxiety, and relational difficulties, as well as supporting work/ life balance and overall stress management. Additionally, I have worked extensively with women post partum, caregivers, ASD clients and families, and parenting skills training. I am a Christian and happy to incorporate faith into our work together, but only if that is something you feel would be helpful. It would be an honor to help you reach your full potential using compassion, validation, and solution focused strategies.

I provide support and treatment for adults, children, and adolescents. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and hold certification in Perinatal Mental Health through PSI. I have worked with kids, adolescents and adults with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, problem sexual behaviors, substance abuse, co-occurring disorders, and mood disorders. My specialty is providing counseling for individuals navigating fertility, loss, pregnancy, the transition to parenthood, perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs), and parenting. My approach is client-centered, empathetic, non-judgmental, genuine and solution focused.

Finding a new therapist is hard. I provide my clients with a safe and supportive space as we explore how you can find greater peace and clarity. If you're feeling stuck, anxious, or unhappy with certain areas of your life, I can help you examine what is causing those feelings so you can gain greater insight and overcome patterns that may be holding you back.

Are you helping an aging parent navigate the challenging transitions of older age, illness, or dementia? Are you, or someone you love, overwhelmed by the emotional realities associated with a life-limiting illness? If so, I offer calm and compassionate emotional and practical support to navigate the daunting uncertainties of illness, aging, and death. I work with elders and those living with serious illness (as well as those who support them) to cope, plan, and prepare for the trials and transitions of everyday living. When necessary, I help plan and prepare for a meaningful and healing end of life experience.

My clinical focus is identifying and intervening on patterns of behavior and thought that prevent individuals from being more satisfied or better adjusted to where they are in their life. We all go through stress, transitions, and hardships. Adversity is a guarantee. What matters is how we deal with the challenges we encounter. Besides having a strong background doing individual work, I also work well with couples in conflict. There is something satisfying about helping a couple work through issues that have been eroding away the happiness and satisfaction that brought them together in the first place.

I have been in the social work field for over a decade working with adults with addictions, new parents on strengthening and understanding attachment, foster/adoptive parents, young adults with autism, the acquired brain injury population, and mother's struggling with depression and anxiety.

My ideal clients are adolescents who have learning and behavioral issues. I work with young adults who are looking at colleges and helping them with career choices.
