I take the "come as you are" attitude when it comes to therapy. Utilizing a Rogerian approach, I try to meet every client where they are in life. If you're looking for a therapist who is client-centered, honest and diligent then look no further. I also place a special emphasis on equity and social justice within my practice. It's important that my clients don't internalize systemic failures as personal failings.

Stressful situations or painful events can change the trajectory of our life in powerful and lasting ways. A traumatizing experience such as an assault or accident, experiences of abuse, the death of someone close to you, a life-changing medical condition, losing your job, or major adjustments such as retirement or the end of a relationship can leave us feeling lost, alone, hopeless, angry, and afraid. My goal is to help you feel better quickly through cultivating new coping skills, as well as helping you to grow psychologically so that you are more prepared for the future ups and downs of life.

Are you exhausted in your search for love and belonging, confused by self-sabotaging behaviors and then overwhelmed with feelings of shame and self-loathing?

Welcome! I'm so glad you're here. I made the decision, after 30 wonderful years of teaching, to return to school with the desire to keep learning. My interest in mental health therapy has led me to a place where I'm able to help others deal more effectively with life's challenges. As a mother of three adult children, I understand the joys, responsibilities, and stressors of parenting. I am grateful to God for the path that has led me here. As a Catholic therapist, I am also able to integrate faith into the therapeutic approach if requested.
