As a therapist I believe that you are uniquely capable of facing all the challenges that life bring you. The answers to the pain that you are experiencing are already held within you. The process of therapy is to help you tap into those internal resources. My role as your therapist is to walk alongside you bringing clarity to the confusion. I specialize in individual and family counseling with a focus on divorce, divorce recovery, and coparenting therapy. During these difficult times of transition you may experience depression or anxiety. I am hear to help you return your life to an even kilter.

I believe that valued change is possible and that reaching out for support is the first step. I am passionate about supporting people as they connect to their most authentic selves and create a more meaningful life. My primary focus includes working with individuals with eating disorders, anxiety, mood disturbances and a history of trauma and their families and supports. I enjoy working with families and parents by providing family therapy and parent coaching, as well as working with supports to include partners, parents and siblings, by providing individual therapy.

Seeking therapeutic support can be challenging, scary, and overwhelming due to fears of being judged, uncertainty of the direction to take, and who to reach out to. My goal is to create an inviting environment where you can begin the process of addressing your goals and personal struggles. I believe we all face a time where we need extra support outside of our friends and families. Where we can focus on our own personal growth and empowerment by exploring thoughts, feelings, and life experiences to increase effective coping skills, problem solving skills, and new perspectives.

I am a safe place where you can explore the past and we will work to build the future you choose from a place of love and compassion.
