I work with women who have been doing too much for too long. Sure, you're competent, but you're also burnt out, or at least you're heading there. Something else is calling to you. You might not know exactly what yet, but it's there, reaching out to you in a quiet, yet consistent voice, "I'm not happy. I want something different!" Maybe you're curious about your dreams and you would like to explore their possible meaning. Maybe you and your partner or no longer connecting the way you'd like to. Maybe you are looking for a therapist for your child/teen. Let's talk. If we're not a match I can help you find one who is.

I tailor my approach to you. Each person is different. Some people like a more directive approach, some more introspective. Let me know what works with you and we'll create from there. While my specialty is women, I also love working with children, teens and relationships, I am here to honor the soul and help you create an abundant, fulfilling life.

You don’t have to hold it all together alone. We can work through this together. Whether you're seeking support for yourself or your relationship(s), I’m here to listen without judgment and help you find relief, clarity, and connection. If something in you is saying it’s time, I invite you to reach out.
