Hello! We all experience struggle and difficult situations in life. I approach all who come into my office with acceptance, support and individually tailored sessions. We will work together to gain better understanding, set goals and work toward them. Therapy is a safe, judgement-free space for you and/or your family unit to work through hard times.

I am not currently accepting new clients through Telehealth. The most courageous step in starting a journey of change is asking someone for help. My goal is to help individuals heal and feel equipped to develop the tools they need to create a more empowered life. My approach to counseling is collaborative, non-judgmental, and supportive in order to create a healthy space where an individual, couple, or family can freely be themselves.
