Most of us can use some guidance in our lives, and often, individuals avoid seeking help due to feeling misunderstood and stigmatized. I enjoy helping others and can provide you with an understanding of symptoms and behaviors, helping you realize your own potential, develop confidence and self-esteem and learn tools to manage and cope with your life. My specialty is treating anxiety disorders but also help those with depression, grief, self-esteem and relationship issues

Are life changes leaving you feeling confused, directionless, or in need of support or guidance? I hear you. It might even seem like you’ve tried everything you know only to feel more anxious or stuck than before. Suppose you could find a way through this, guided by your strongest and most true self. I’m here to walk with you through an empowering journey of self-exploration and growth to navigate life transitions, manage stress and anxiety, heal from adversity, and create the life you want. This is a place for explorers, deep thinkers, hard workers, and wandering souls.

Sometimes our lives can seem out of balance. This can look different for each of us. Our relationships may feel strained, stuck or volatile. Maybe our thoughts are racing, or we cannot stop dwelling on the past or worrying about the future. Maybe we are confused about who we are and where we fit in. When this happens, we may turn to unhealthy coping mechanisms such as substance use or self-harm behaviors. We may experience eating disorders or find ourselves in unhealthy relationships. Sometimes we may feel like our lives are not worth living.

I am a licensed mental health counselor who understands that life can be challenging and that a positive support system to help find balance is important. I believe that everyone needs a compassionate and non-judgmental atmosphere to explore the feeling of being faced with a brick wall and swimming against the waves. I do and can provide that support. I am experienced in working with adolescents, adults and families. I utilize a holistic, trauma informed approach to help optimize your overall well-being and to strengthen the skills you already have within.

I work with individuals and couples of all ages and backgrounds. Experience as a therapist includes community mental health & work with children, teens & parents (primarily in school settings). My therapy focus is on wholeness regardless of the problem, but to provide a context, the work I do addresses residual post-trauma effects, ADD, grief and loss, chronic depression, social (and other forms of) anxiety, and self-integration needs following separation and/or divorce. A therapeutic fit with a good counselor is a huge relief; it helps us recover an inner resilience we either lost or never knew we possessed.

"I believe that wellness includes our physical, emotional and mental being. My focus in counseling is to help you work through the road blocks that are affecting your well-being. Together we will help you to achieve wellness. I look forward to assisting you in becoming your best self."

Therapy is a journey toward self discovery, self realization, growth and change. Many people find themselves struggling with issues such as low self-esteem, anxiety, fear and depression. They create inaccurate beliefs about themselves based on false and negative thoughts. The secret to building positive self-esteem is to learn to see the whole you not just your mistakes, failures or imperfections. "To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance" Oscar Wilde
