Are you a college student who may be struggling to adjust, figure out who you are or who you would like to be? Maybe you are a young adult seeking clarity and guidance to help you explore your unique perspective and experiences. As the expert in your life, I tailor my approach to meet you where you are, ensuring a comfortable and effective counseling experience. Starting therapy may be new to you and even if it is not, it can be hard to take that first step! My warm and friendly nature will put you at ease as we get to know each other. Together we will work towards finding your path and developing coping strategies along the way.
I bring 30 years of life experience working with children and families to support you in your journey. If you or your child need support with anxiety, depression, stress management, parenting, social skills, relationship issues, emotional regulation or career counseling, I am here to listen with compassion and provide you resources to handle life's issues.
My passion is to support clients of all ages in navigating life's challenges and transitions. Let's connect with a brief phone call to discuss your needs, answer any questions you may have and see if we are a good fit. I look forward to guiding you or your child to a place where you can live your life to the fullest potential.

During our first sessions we will be getting to know each other and building trust so that you feel comfortable sharing and exploring what brought you to therapy. We will set goals and work together to address your challenges by building on your strengths. I often use mindfulness and cognitive behavioral therapy to help you be in the moment and identify and change unhealthy or negative thinking.
