The human experience is messy and unpredictable. It takes courage to ask for help, and I am here to meet you where you are. Unfortunately, counseling is not one-size-fits-all, but together we can craft an experience that matches your needs. I offer a warm, safe environment that allows self-exploration of thoughts and experiences without the fear of judgment or shame. I enjoy using humor and creativity in my practice and often challenge my clients to reach their full potential. Together we will work to achieve personal growth using a collaborative approach of empowerment and trust.

I work well with clients whose concerns are related to anxiety, eating disorders, OCD, grief/loss, trauma, mood disorders, depression, perfectionism, and concerns related to identity. I enjoy helping people build skills to more effectively respond to their distress, and to engage in their lives with an increased sense of purpose and awareness of their values. I worked in a college counseling center for 10 years before co-founding a private practice, and work well with people who are making a life transition.

I enjoy working with ages 10+ in identifying areas of concern and working collaboratively in development of a treatment plan that works for them at their particular stage in life. I love working with clients on the Autism Spectrum, particularly as they are transitioning into adulthood, as well as working with their parents or guardians on identification of needs and creating a one step at a time plan customized foreach client.

I have been working in the counseling field for 25 years. I enjoy helping clients help themselves move forward and live a healthier life. I've worked in college counseling centers, community mental health, schools, and in Corporate America. I use a cognitive behavioral approach and focus on each client's strengths. I've worked with many clinical issues: including anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties and many other issues that interfere with one's ability to enjoy life. I truly believe that if an individual, couple or family want help, healing is possible.

Do you struggle with low self-esteem that affects your relationships, sense of purpose, or ability to feel confident in who you are? Do you feel exhausted trying to meet others’ expectations, doubting your worth, or second-guessing every decision? Do you hope life could feel lighter and more fulfilling? Now more than ever, people are feeling anxious and uncertain in a world that demands perfection. I help clients rebuild self-worth, reconnect with their true selves, and create a life that feels authentic, empowered, and enough.

Are you struggling with feeling disconnected from yourself and others? Do you put your needs last? Do you wonder how your life could be happier or better? Now more than ever, people are feeling anxious, overwhelmed and uncertain about how they are supposed to manage their relationships, careers and their lives. Pushing away your needs and not taking time for yourself can lead to long-term issues for your mind and body. I believe it shouldn’t be so hard to live a better life.
