"If there is life there is hope." When life is difficult and overwhelming it is helpful to have someone come alongside to support you. The therapeutic process encourages the individual or family to bring awareness to both it's strengths and it's struggles. Through this awareness change begins. I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 20 years of experience with intensive training in depression, anxiety and grief counseling. This includes any type loss- death and dying, divorce, change in job or financial status, life transition etc. I have also done extensive work with veterans and their families.

*Currently offering sessions by phone or video* I offer an open minded approach to the specific needs of every individual I meet with.

I have a background in crisis, and other areas of emphasis include depression, anxiety, interpersonal issues, and grief/loss. Let me help you find yourself again.

Welcome and thank you for your interest in my practice. For the past 25 + years, my work has been dedicated to helping individuals, couples, and families who are struggling and wish to make positive changes in their lives. Many of the people I see are experiencing stress associated with personal, career, academic, or family transitions. Others are trying to navigate through anxiety, depression, loneliness, or conflicts in relationships. My goal is to listen carefully and to provide valuable feedback and support so that clients may rediscover their strength and find solutions to life's often complex challenges.

When life is painful and overwhelming, I will listen. If you are struggling with addictions, I can help. When your relationship feels broken, I will give you tools.

Life can be challenging; getting help doesn't have to be. Balancing family, work/school, and personal relationships can be a daily struggle. Trying to make the time to care for one's self can be difficult. Sometimes we need an objective person to help navigate us through these struggles so that we can see more clearly and reach our true potential. I believe that each one of us holds the answers to our own questions and we just need a quiet, safe environment to access that part of us. I am honored to be that person for my clients.

Coping with depression, anxiety, addiction, or even just life stressors can at times feel overwhelming. It's like you are stuck in a cycle of pain and anguish, and your best efforts to deal with it end up making things worse. Maybe you have reached out to friends and family for help, and have been met with either criticism or well-intentioned, but unhelpful advice. You might have even read a self-help book or two, and struggled to use what you've learned for more than a couple weeks. Sometimes, even the efforts to change seem so difficult that you'll give up, convinced things will never get better. There is a better way.

We will work together to find the right approach to meet your goals. Together we will overcome grief, loss, anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions.
