Reaching out for therapy takes courage. Whether you’re navigating a difficult season or sensing that something needs to change, you don’t have to do it alone.
I work with adults across the lifespan who are dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief, and major life transitions. Some clients come in crisis; others are ready to understand themselves more deeply and move forward with greater clarity and purpose. Many people I see are navigating midlife and later-life transitions—retirement, caregiving, shifting family roles, long-term relationship challenges or redefining identity after years in a specific role.
Others are younger adults facing decisions about work, love, and direction. While the circumstances differ, the themes are often similar: loss, resilience, growth, and the desire for a more meaningful life. I bring professional training and real-world perspective to our work. Therapy with me is collaborative, grounded, and thoughtful.
Humor and fun are also important parts of my life, and I see them as essential to navigating life’s hills and valleys. Many adults view “fun” as something just for kids. I don’t. I believe it is vital at every age.
