I have a passion for finding humor even in tough situations, and laughter is a key part of my life. What I cherish most in my work is witnessing those "aha" moments where individuals gain clarity and grow towards their goals. Helping people recognize their potential and self-worth has been my focus for over twenty years as I support them through mental health and life challenges. For me, it's crucial to keep learning and growing alongside them. I believe therapy serves different purposes for each person, but the core element is having a safe space to be authentically oneself in all their messy, wonderful glory.

Maybe things didn't turn out exactly as planned. You had hopes and expectations about what life "should" look like. You might be feeling paralyzed by decisions, anxious, lost, or alone. Maybe you’re having second thoughts…What if this isn’t exactly the situation you wanted or the future you dreamed it would be? Change isn't easy, but with the right support, it is possible. I primarily work with female-identifying adults, as well as teens and adolescents who are navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, trauma, narcissistic abuse, grief, and codependency.
