I support parents navigating high-conflict dynamics with pre-teens and teens, including challenges related to anxiety, depression, and family disconnection. I also work with adults facing life transitions, chronic stress, grief, and unresolved experiences that impact emotions and relationships. In addition, I help parents and caregivers—particularly those in the “Sandwich Generation”—manage the competing demands of raising children while caring for aging parents. Therapy offers a space to slow down, gain insight into patterns, strengthen resilience, and move forward with greater clarity, connection, and self-trust.
I specialize in helping adults, teens, and parents navigate trauma, chronic stress, anxiety, grief, and life transitions. My warm, collaborative approach blends insight with practical tools to help clients understand themselves more deeply, regulate emotions, build self-trust, and create meaningful, sustainable change.
My approach is warm, collaborative, trauma-informed, and evidence-based. I combine practical tools with deeper insight while honoring your unique experiences and strengths. As a parent of two young adults, I bring both professional expertise and personal understanding to help you navigate life's challenges with greater clarity, resilience, and confidence.

I'm trained to use SPACE (Supportive Parenting of Anxious Childhood Emotions), a parent-based treatment for children with anxiety or OCD. Parents learn to reduce accommodations, respond with support and confidence, and help their child build resilience, independence and coping skills.
