It is my belief that every individual and family has the potential to overcome the problems that they face in life, but we were never intended to do so alone.
Life is full of changes and transitions-particularly for children, adolescents, young adults, and their families! It is my hope that I can work with individuals and families to not only grow from their experiences, but to gain helpful insight that will allow them to flourish in the future. I am currently accepting new clients ages three to thirteen years of age, as well as working with parents regarding parenting-related concerns. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, ADHD symptoms, school-related concerns, and clients whose families may be in the midst of a transition in their family system.

Our connection with our family, friends, and partners can inspire us to do great things, or it can leave us feeling empty, and unloved.
You’re feeling tired, anxious, and empty, hoping to find balance in your life. You want to change how you approach your daily stressors, but you don’t know how to even start. Finding your path through difficult challenges feels overwhelming most of the time. Regardless of the reason, you feel disconnected, lonely, and anxious. Are you hoping to find someone who will not only listen to you but also your story?

I have a passion for families struggling w/ blended family issues, addiction or mental illness.
"...healing means, first of all, the creation of an empty but friendly space where those who suffer can tell their story to someone who can listen with real attention..." (Henri Nouwen). My desire in counseling is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space for one to tell their story, to go deeper and discover the their own personal way of being human and the way they want to go. As Henri Nouwen says, "Quite often it is our fear for the hidden moments in our own history that keeps us paralyzed."

I use narrative therapy to address anger in women, conflict in family relationships, codependency, sexuality and setting boundaries.
We're supposed to drink enough water, get enough sleep, exercise, save money, make money, work hard while having work/life balance, be a great spouse/parent/sibling/child, travel more...the list is endless. We are taught to engage life at a grueling and intense pace that is becoming increasingly difficult in the backdrop of a tumultuous world in crisis. I don't view mental health in a vacuum; sometimes depression and anxiety are appropriate and healthy responses to stressful and unprecedented life events. I teach solution-oriented skills to address feelings, improve communication and live in a healthy way that honors your humanity.
