You may look like you’re holding it all together, but inside you feel exhausted, anxious, or overwhelmed. Maybe past trauma, burnout, or difficult family dynamics have left you feeling disconnected from yourself or unsure how to move forward. I work with people who are ready to begin healing, even if they don’t yet have the words for what they’re feeling. Together, we focus on helping you feel more grounded, confident, and at peace in your day-to-day life.

You might be here because you feel stuck in complicated family dynamics and unsure where your needs end and others’ expectations begin. Maybe you’re wrestling with boundaries, people-pleasing, or feeling responsible for everyone else’s emotions. Anxiety might feel like it’s running the show, keeping you up at night, second-guessing your decisions, and draining your energy. Or perhaps you’re navigating a big life transition, leaving home, starting a career, becoming a parent, or redefining relationships, and you’re not sure how to find yourself in the process.

I specialize in supporting individuals, families, or couples at each stage of life: families and teens preparing for college; adults contemplating career change; couples planning to marry or experiencing relationship difficulties; and women and men adjusting to aging, retirement, or conflicts with adult children.
Through the power of relationship, we clarify your concerns, identify life stressors, and explore personal strengths. I recommend practical steps to heal your pain (grief, abuse, anxiety, depression) through developing your coping skills (reframing negative thoughts, communicating effectively, setting boundaries, seeking community support, meditating, journaling, exercising) to reach your goals.

I work with children, teens, adults, and families navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, and complex family and relationship dynamics.
Maybe you’re navigating depression that feels heavier than you let on. Maybe trauma — recent or generational — still echoes in your body. Maybe you’re questioning parts of your identity, your faith, your family roles, or who you’re allowed to be. You don’t have to sort through it by yourself anymore.

The process of working with a new client is to gather pertinent information about the client's psychosocial, environment, and past family history to help accurately diagnose the client. Once a diagnosis is made then a treatment plan would be developed conjointly between the client and me utilizing S.M.A.R.T. goals. S.M.A.R.T. goals are​ specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-based goals that would help the client be successful in treatment. If you are looking for a counselor who is genuine, compassionate, authentic, and who will listen and care about your concerns. Then I am here to help you restore your self-worth.
