Life’s challenges can feel overwhelming, especially when navigating grief, trauma, family problems, or life transitions. I strive to create a warm, supportive space where you feel heard, valued, and understood. Every person’s journey is unique, and I am committed to meeting you where you are, providing guidance and care tailored to your individual needs.
With extensive experience and training in trauma, grief, mood disorders, and family dynamics, I help individuals and families navigate life’s challenges.
I work with children, families, and individuals facing mood disorders, behavior challenges, trauma, or grief. My experience includes supporting young adults transitioning to college and independent living, as well as retired individuals adjusting to the changes that come with retirement. I truly enjoy helping navigate these pivotal moments in life.
I believe that healing begins within a strong therapeutic relationship—one built on trust, authenticity, and respect. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply seeking guidance, I’m here to walk alongside you. If you’re ready to take the next step, I invite you to reach out.
