Welcome! If you are searching for a therapist for yourself or a preteen/teen you love to help with anxiety, grief/loss, or self-esteem, take a look around and reach out for a free consultation.
I currently offer therapeutic services for teens (age 11+), women and couples. I am passionate about helping my clients to heal and grow into the best versions of themselves. As you work with me, you will strengthen communication skills and relationships. You will gain clarity on what you want and what you need to feel better.
First, I focus on building trust and safety. As connection is built, we will work to challenge unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Together we will focus on strengths and practice new ways of managing emotions. If you or your child is ready to start therapy, call or email to set up a free consultation!

I draw from a variety of approaches to tailor therapy to what your needs are. We will take a closer look at what you've been struggling with and then develop new ways to react to life's challenges. We'll practice tools that can help you feel grounded and more in control. My goal as I work with you is for you to feel stronger and more confident to show up for yourself and your loved ones.
