Are you navigating a life you never expected—caring for your grandchildren, adjusting to retirement, becoming a caregiver, or feeling overwhelmed by a major life change? You’re not alone! Navigating these and other major life transitions often comes with stress, grief, role or identity shifts. Many carry more than their share, often quietly and without support. Whether you’re raising grandchildren, coping with the loss of a role or identity, or adjusting to other significant life changes, therapy can be a place to breathe, process, and regain your balance.
I work with adults who are navigating transitions that often bring a range of emotions, including stress, anger, grief, and shifts in identity. I employ Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and person-centered approaches to help clients manage anxiety, develop coping skills, find clarity, and feel more empowered.

I assist clients who may be facing depression, anxiety, and trauma linked to chronic illness or pain. During our first sessions, we will examine these issues and work together to develop a strategy for tackling them in a manner that allows you to regain control of your life. Many clients begin to feel some relief within the initial month, with ongoing progress afterward. I'm excited to meet you!

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
