Are intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviors disrupting and dictating your daily life? Are you seeking freedom from these thoughts and behaviors? You're not alone.

Life is constantly in a state of change, I help people process that change and overcome issues to increase overall wellbeing, I have experience working with individuals, children, and families impacted by socio-economic barriers, eating disorders/body dysmorphia, trauma, abuse & neglect, substance abuse, divorce, chronic illness, death, and bereavement.

Sometimes we feel alone, misunderstood, scared. Other times we feel anger, turmoil, overwhelmed. It can be a painful past which still gives us no peace, or a fork in the road ahead which confuses us. We may have no way to settle our fears. Children may be challenging us, or we may be observing them struggle in their personal lives. Relationships may be unsettling or disappointing. What we all want is happiness, inner peace. Gratifying relationships. Pride in our parenting. A way to move on from past traumas and allow us to feel free again.

Change is hard. Even when it's something that you might really want to change! I believe everyone could use extra support when trying to make a change or going through a particularly challenging part of their lives. Every person needs to be treated as an individual and I tailor my approach to what each person needs. You know yourself better than anyone else! YOU get to decide what changes you want to make and what that might look like. I would be honored to help you wherever you are at in your life. I truly appreciate the strength that it takes to seek help and welcome the opportunity to join you on your journey.

An ideal client for a mental health professional would be an individual with a mental health disorder such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, etc., who demonstrates the motivation to change and improve their well-being. This client should be committed to attending therapy sessions regularly, keeping appointments, and actively engaging in the therapeutic process to manage or overcome their diagnosis.
