I am taking new clients as of June 2026! I have partnered with a colleague, Frank Bienkowski to create a new practice, True to You Counseling and Coaching. Over my 20+ years in the field of mental health I’ve come to believe most people are seeking to understand their place and purpose in this challenging world. Navigating things like relationships, finances, careers, family, and trying to make the right choices all while having many unexpected events thrown in can be destabilizing. When you feel lost and have more questions than answers, I am here to help you sort through the overwhelm.
I received my master’s degree in 1998. I work with folks struggling with substance abuse, trauma, anxiety, depression, and seeking support during the many challenges in life. I also enjoy working with couples - both together or co-parenting apart. I have experience with neurodiverse couples and adults and I am trained as a divorce and family mediator.
Seeking out a therapist means you are coming from a place of strength at the outset. I believe in providing a safe, forthright, supportive, and encouraging space for you to share whatever concerns, questions, and goals you may have. I will respectfully listen, provide you with honest feedback, and actively support you on your journey.

During our initial sessions, I like to get to know you at a pace that makes you most comfortable. It's important you feel seen, heard, and valued, especially when taking the steps to work through challenging feelings and life struggles. I find it very helpful to provide additional resources you can use in between our sessions. I also encourage bringing a notebook to sessions.

My therapeutic style is intentionally eclectic, determining what might work best for you as we go along. Initially, we'll explore your reasons for seeking therapy and decide how I can best help you. I often play an active role in our sessions - initially as an observer and then providing feedback as well as guidance, and resources. I strive for you to have a "take-away" with each session.
