You don't have to go it alone. Are you an older adult or the caregiver for a parent or spouse? Struggling to keep your balance while dealing with chronic illness or pain? Have you lost a loved one or had a major life change? All of these challenges bring fatigue, isolation, loneliness, and feelings of loss. With help, you can better understand your feelings and better meet your challenge. If you are stressed and feeling burnt out, depressed, or weighed down by anxiety, reach out for help. In therapy, you can get the support that you need to build on your strengths and thrive. Serving adults of all ages and the LGBTQ+ community
In a warm and supportive atmosphere you can get the support and practical tools that you need. I have over 20 years experience working with older adults, caregivers, those with health issues, chronic pain, dealing with grief/loss and anxiety and depression.
I believe in a holistic approach to treating the whole person, as everyone is unique. I use several evidence based treatment modalities, along with mindfulness and empowerment techniques to facilitate growth through the ease and convenience of telehealth services.
