I am most effective with those who are hungry and hurting. I walk beside those who want to make sense of what is keeping them from living the lives they want. I enjoy supporting those who are seeking meaning, direction, and a sense of purpose in their lives.

Imagine a life fulfilled — this is not just a possibility; it can be your reality. If you're feeling off-course, weighed down by worries, or missing the sense of joy in your days, I’m here to help you press reset. It’s time to halt the cycle of worry, emptiness, and depletion. Embracing joy and happiness doesn't have to be a monumental task. Sometimes, the hurdles of anxiety, guilt, and depression cloud our vision of who we truly aspire to be. It's time to clear the fog and foster fulfilling connections in all facets of your life.

Sometimes people come to a point in their life when they feel stuck. After trying to solve their challenges on their own, they come to realize they could use some help. You may have arrived at a place in your life where additional support overcoming an obstacle would be helpful. You may sense the need for a safe place to heal or grow. Counseling is a place where you can be authentic, acknowledge your challenges and create a plan to move forward toward wholeness. We can work together to achieve your goals and create a more fulfilling life. Growth and change is possible for everyone.

I support children, teens, adults, couples, and families on their journey through a holistic lens, while looking at the “whole person".  I am passionate about supporting those struggling with anxiety, anxiety related disorders (social anxiety, panic disorder, phobias), obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), depression, self-esteem, body image, body dysmorphic disorder, body-focused repetitive behaviors, life transitions (school, motherhood, friendship, family, marriage, divorce, career, etc), relational difficulties, stress management, communication skills, chronic illness, and trauma.

Are you feeling stuck-in-a-rut? Are you having difficulty living the life you hoped for? Perhaps you have tried therapy/counseling in the past but you have not experienced the type of improvement you desire? My approach to therapy is driven by the belief that the hardest part of making change is implementing a long-lasting plan. I work well with clients who feel stuck and hopeless, and who are looking to make some sort of change in their lives, whether it is related to mood, life phase, addictions/habits, and/or relationships.

Are you feeling stuck, stressed, or anxious? Do you or your child need help to improve confidence, make new friends, or cope with your current life circumstances?

I am passionate about working with adolescents, young adults, adults, new moms/moms, & families who are working through a life transition (school, family, friendship), anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, poor communication skills, relational struggles, family conflict, and difficulty connecting and making friends.
