Congratulations! You landed here because you’re finally ready! Traumatic experiences can sometimes leave you feeling guilty, ashamed or confused. Maybe you’re having difficulty pulling the pieces together or simply can’t find the motivation to move forward. Perhaps you’re wondering how do I get unstuck or when will I feel better about myself? Trauma is not little or big, nor does depression and anxiety look the same on everyone. Maybe life has thrown you an unexpected curve ball in the form of retirement, empty nester, blending a family, pivoting into a new career or aging not so gracefully. If that’s you, we’re a perfect fit!
I specialize in working with those who have experienced trauma, have attachment issues, and suffer from anxiety and depression. I also provide support to individuals as they discover and recover from challenges that have hindered their personal and professional development.
Helping individuals get the most out of life and find the courage to heal at their pace, is my niche. You took the first step. Now let’s take the next step together. Contact me today and let’s LIVE forward.

I work with a variety of clients struggling with anxiety and depression or trauma. Others may be experiencing unique challenges such as family conflict or aging. During our initial session, we will explore your immediate concerns and collaborate to devise a plan that gradually resolves your issues. Most of my clients feel relief within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.

My theoretical orientation is based on Bowen Family Systems as I believe many presenting issues tend to derive from experiences in our family of origin. I empower clients to embrace their true self by releasing dysfunctional behaviors and develop healthy strategies for a lifetime. Together we explore past experiences, establish new meaning in the present and reclaim self-identity for the future.
