Immediate availability for in-person and virtual sessions -Life can be overwhelming—whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions or just feeling stuck. I offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard and begin to make sense of your experiences. In our work together, we’ll explore patterns, build practical coping tools, and strengthen your connection to your inner resilience. For those who find words limiting, as a licensed art therapist, I can also guide you to to express feelings visually (no art experience needed). Let’s begin the process of healing—together.
Clients often describe me as compassionate, approachable, and occasionally humorous. I believe healing happens within safe, trusting relationships. I’ll meet you where you are, offering empathy, care, and—when it fits—a bit of humor. We all have a deep need to feel truly seen and heard, and I remain curious and open as we explore what works best for you.
I work with adults, adolescents, and children (ages 7+)—everyone’s experiences and challenges deserve a space to for processing. If you're ready to take the first step toward fulfilling change, I’m here to support you. Call or email Village Counseling, Hampden with any questions or to schedule an appointment.
