I have had a 35 + year career of counseling those in need with mental health and substance abuse issues. I have a unique approach to developing a trusting relationship that is meant to let the client steer me to what is important or missing in their life. It is part of the human condition for us to feel lost at times which facilitates the need for an experienced clinician to assist them in finding ways to cope with issues they are experiencing.

I am an English/Spanish counselor whose main goal is to help my clients find hope, resilience and solutions to their problems. My academic and life experiences have shown me that most challenges and frustrations have solutions. I help my clients understand that the solution is within him/her during those moments when they feel they're unable to endure life's challenges and problems. We uncover the "where, when, and how" and then we find the "why" (reasons) underlying the feelings of doom and frustration. This allows us to discover and implement workable solutions.

I work with women and LGBTQIA+ clients struggling with anxiety, self-worth, and life transitions. I also support those with ADHD/ASD who may feel misunderstood, emotionally drained, or overwhelmed by daily demands and social expectations.
I help clients move forward by offering practical skills and tools that genuinely work, while helping them gain insight into patterns that may no longer serve them. I love guiding clients to reconnect to- or find for the very first time- their values, strengths, and sense of meaning.

Are you:
- An adult navigating late-diagnosis or the effects of ADHD?
- Navigating the deep impacts of trauma?
- Exploring grief after a significant or confusing loss?
- Finding traditional talk therapy too limiting?
If you answered yes to any of these, I'm glad you're here. At some point, life became overwhelming. You might feel like you’re constantly "masking" to fit in, or that your mind and body are speaking two different languages. Maybe you find yourself falling back into similar, unsupportive patterns. I provide a brave, neuro-affirming space that helps you rewrite your story and define who you are, on your own terms.
