Working with individuals experiencing anxiety and/or depression is my passion. I want to offer tools and coping skills to help live a fulfilling life despite the challenges that depression and anxiety bring. I have specifically noticed a rise in anxiety and depression amongst teens. I love helping this age group in giving them the best start at life possible, and assist them in building self-confidence and love for themselves as they go through this exciting stage of self-discovery. Helping women and young women discover their value and worth is the greatest reward in this life.

Trying to heal can be a lonely and hidden journey. Why open up if you will be judged or condemned? Seventeen years ago, I met a therapist who didn’t judge, and I knew he genuinely cared. I felt it! His genuine compassion, despite my flaws, made me realize healing is possible! From that point on, healing became my passion; it felt contagious. Helping others feel safe, heard, understood, and non-judged. Caused me to change my business career after getting my MBA, to get a 2nd Masters in Marriage & Family Therapy.

Is your present relationship complicated and sometimes painful? Are you experiencing loneliness, anxiety, and discouragement? Committing to someone requires courage and vulnerability. I work with couples, families, and individuals applying the principles of EFT which is a research-based treatment for clients seeking emotional safety and connection. EFT can help you understand the painful patterns that cause emotional disconnection. I would love to offer you tools to successfully achieve connection, personal growth, greater self confidence, and helpful insight in your quest for hope, healing and fulfillment.

I believe in change! My goal is to give you hope when life appears hopeless. I work with a wide variety of relationship and mental health issues. I believe that attachment and our need for love is critical during every phase of life. I also feel that mental health problems, relationship issues and addictions arise when we bury our true feelings. Change can be scary and fear of the unknown causes us cling to what we know. I am here to help you to face your fears, make a plan, and move forward toward a better way of life.
