Hi! I am glad you are here. There is no better time than now to begin working on your mental health! Life is difficult and navigating all of it can lead to feelings of depression or anxiety. I want to partner with you to explore ways in which you may find peace and happiness in life. My goal is to utilize your strengths and experiences to help you heal and grow. I have experience working with children and adolescents, along with their families to provide support and care navigating challenging experiences. I look forward to joining you on your journey!
I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families who are coping with relationship or family issues, recovering from trauma, or are having a difficult time connecting with one another. I specialize in depression, anxiety, trauma, relationships, self-esteem, and communication strategies.
You are not alone. I am here to help, no matter where you are on your journey. Give me a call or email me to schedule your free, no commitment, 15- minute consultation call. I look forward to hearing from you!
