Life transitions, stress, and feeling “stuck” can leave you overwhelmed, exhausted, or unsure of what to do next. You may be navigating anxiety or depression, relationship or parenting challenges, divorce/single parenting, or the demands of caring for both children and aging parents. If you’re an educator or caregiver, you may also be experiencing compassion fatigue or burnout. You don’t have to face these challenges alone. I offer a warm, supportive, and non-judgmental space where you can slow down, feel heard, and gain clarity.
I work with adults and teens (16+), with a special interest in supporting women, educators, and caregivers who are stretched thin and seeking greater balance and fulfilment. I hold a B.A. in Psychology from the University of Notre Dame and an M.A. in Educational Psychology from the University of MN, and have many years of experience as a school counselor.
My approach is collaborative, strengths-based, and person-centered. Together, we will work at your pace to explore concerns, clarify goals, and build tools to help you feel more balanced, confident, and resilient. My style is down-to-earth style using unconditional positive regard and gentle humor, and I would be honored to support you on your path forward.
