I understand the power of hope, deepened by over 30 years' experience supporting individuals through adversity, life changes, and periods of emotional difficulty. If you're living with anxiety, trauma, depression, or a sense that something isn’t quite working, I offer therapy attuned to your emotional needs and grounded in real-life healing. I’m a good fit for adults 21+ who are seeking a collaborative, empathetic, and warm environment where it is okay to shed some tears and even enjoy the benefits of some stress-relieving laughter, as you face challenges, including anxiety, stress, depression, trauma history, and life decisions.

Are you ready to feel more like yourself and create meaningful change? I view successful therapy as an experience where your strengths and values are supported as you align your life with your aspirations and navigate toward your chosen direction. My approach is integrative and it is tailored specifically to you.

Throughout my career and life, I gained valuable insight into the human capacity to be amazingly resilient when adequate support is available. Please reach out to me, as it would be my honor to meet you and support you. All sessions are provided virtually for your comfort and convenience.

I offer a supportive, skills-focused approach with deep listening, coping tools, psychoeducation, and resources. We may use CBT to change unhelpful thoughts and Mindfulness to steady the nervous system. EMDR is available as a gentle, highly effective method for healing past events and trauma. I'll help you feel more like yourself and reduce symptoms in ways you can notice in everyday life.
