Do you ever find yourself overwhelmed by multiple worries and anxious thoughts? Perhaps you even think, “If only I can have one day of happiness and peace?”It may be you are struggling with the demands of caregiving, your own complex health concerns, or grieving the death of someone you love.If any of these describe you, I would love to journey with you. No one should suffer in isolation. I am passionate about offering equitable compassionate support in underrepresented communities. All are welcomed.
Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of supporting individuals navigating health related challenges, and traumatic loss. Today, my practice focuses on the unique mental health needs of older adults and their dedicated caregivers. I also offer consultation to help families gently navigate advanced care planning and palliative care needs.
In therapy, you can expect a warm, creative approach. You will be deeply listened to and validated. My faith in Jesus is at the center of all I do and informs my practice far more than all my training. I love to incorporate mindfulness, nature therapy, poetry, and the arts into sessions when appropriate.Please feel free to contact me for a free consultation.
