Welcome! Dealing with unexpected challenges, change, and the difficulties that life presents us can make it hard to deepen relationships and make decisions. Whether you are a parent struggling with the stress of child-rearing or a young adult dealing with a loss, I believe that every individual has their own unique strengths to propel them toward a better life. I particularly enjoy working with young adults and parents. When working with families, my goal is to help you understand yourself better as a parent and provide sound parenting skills to pave the way towards improved behaviors and a solid connection with your child.

I wish life were as easy as the old song, "nothing but Blue Skies from now on". However, some of life's challenges are complex and we can often find ourselves stuck under gray skies. It would be my privilege to partner with you while we figure out how to get you and your loved ones unstuck.

Many times we struggle with stress, overwhelming experiences, and disturbances in personal identity. We are confronted with situations in which our past experiences strongly affect our reactions, behaviors, and emotional state. Anxiety, depression, self-doubt, intrusive thoughts, and negative behavior patterns have the potential to challenge us and impede emotional growth. I believe that individuals have the ability to implement and follow through on necessary change. Through self-examination and the therapeutic process, we will begin to evolve and create a healthy life narrative.
