I have experience working with many different populations including members of various religious backgrounds, members of various races, relationships of all types, and LGBTQIA+ clients.
Life is a winding road full of many twists and turns that can feel overwhelming and can be chaotic at times. Sometimes, individuals need help making sense of the chaos and learning how to cope with it. I believe that each individual is the expert for their own life and has the ability to solve their concerns when someone walks alongside them and asks the right questions. I desire to help individuals navigate the many issues that can arise in life including struggles with life transitions and other concerns (divorce, moving, job loss, struggles with work/life balance, family conflict, boundary setting, etc.).

Do you find yourself mentally re-playing traumatic experiences back in your mind as if you were watching a movie? Labeling how you feel can be difficult and you often find yourself feeling stuck, confused, angry or irritable. You fake a smile or withdraw from others feeling completely empty and numb. You are physically exhausted, drained, and on edge, but continue to fear what may happen if painful memories overwhelm you. You are ready to feel again and go on without thinking about terrible things that have happened to you.
