It is no secret that the past few years have been difficult for everyone. With the issues that our young people face in these unprecedented times mental health has become one of the foremost priorities. COVID-19, school closures, a divisive political climate and social media have contributed to a decline in mental health throughout the world.

Life is challenging and sometimes overwhelming for all of us! I believe everyone has within themselves the ability and inner wisdom to successfully navigate life's challenges if given the opportunity and necessary tools for change. Therapy is an opportunity for me to walk with clients through life challenges by helping them identify and meet their own desired life goals for change and personal growth while helping them to reclaim their own life story. By providing a safe place and personal support, I help clients explore the context of their own life experiences and the impact of those experiences on their life and relationships.
