Your story matters! Everybody has a story and everybody can create a new story. I love to help people find their passion again, beginning in this very moment. Depression and anxiety have to do with a fear of the future, past experiences, or being on the edge of the unknown. The antidote is to live fully in the present through mindfulness of breathing and/or centering prayer; accepting what is. I would love to accompany you in travelling safely and calmly through your life transitions. Whether you are an adolescent , adult, married, divorcing, single, a survivor, I would feel honored to hear your unique story.

In my practice, I base my treatment on solution focused therapy, strength based, goal-focuses as well as cognitive-behavioral therapy to help my clients achieve long-term success in confronting their challenges.

My practice is unique because I am straight forward with my clients so they understand the steps that they may need to take to be successful while empathizing with their situation. No matter what stage of support or healing you may be in, I'll always meet you exactly where you are. ​
