For 39 years, I have been passionate about helping people find freedom from personal struggles of depression, anxiety and marriage/ family problems.

Many people go through times when they have trouble with even the simple tasks in life. Relationships, work, family and life purpose can become overwhelming at times. Imagine if you didn’t have to feel that way. Connect to your joy and sense of worth. Counseling is a conversation about thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and the collaboration between counselor and client to co-create goals for change. I will work with you to help you change the way you think and feel about yourself and the world. By exploring what you value we will collaborate to overcome the difficulty you have been facing.

Are you experiencing anxiety, sadness, family discord, or depressed mood? Are you in a relationship that makes you feel powerless, devalued or unimportant? My focus is to empower women to overcome their fears and face life challenges with confidence. Together we can discover your strengths and develop new ways to approach and solve problems and transform your life from the ordinary to the extraordinary. Once a woman understands herself and is able to recognize her triggers that hold her back from living up to her potential that is the beginning of the healing process and unleashing the power within.

I accept the challenges of resistant or unsure clients, in fact it brings me the greatest satisfaction to help someone that doesn't believe that therapy can help them.
