I can’t make that happen for you, but I can be your guide and show you the way to find happiness for yourself.

Are you or a loved one struggling with depression, suicidality, an eating disorder, substance use, trauma/PTSD, or grief? Perhaps you’re seeking to improve your boundaries, communication skills, or self-development. Are relationship challenges – communication issues, infidelity, emotional/sexual intimacy, and preferences (LGBTQIA+ identities, consensual nonmonogamy, asexuality, etc.) or life transitions such as family planning, infertility, adoption, parenting, or divorce – weighing heavily on your mind? In these challenging situations, it’s common to feel overwhelmed, lost, or unsure where to turn.
