I help individuals, couples, and families to gain better balance, manage stress, and improve their mental well-being. I work with children, adolescents, and adults.

You are not only good enough, you are BETTER than good enough. I know it may not FEEL like it at times. The harsh inner critic, the inability to make (or trust yourself to make) decisions, the putting on a brave face when on the inside you just want to scream. The things that keep you stuck are getting in the way of you living the life you deserve. And deep down, you know it’s time for a change. It’s time to treat yourself the way you treat others, with care and compassion. It’s time to find your way out of the vicious cycles that keep you stuck in overwhelm, self-doubt, overthinking, perfectionism, and people-pleasing.

Do you want to learn practical skills to use for daily stress? Do you need a safe place to just talk and sort things out? Well, I am ready to help. While trauma and PTSD are my specialty, I have worked with many concerns such as grief/loss, eating disorders, self-esteem, depression, anxiety, phobias, mindfulness, relationship dynamics, and severe mental illness.

Wellness comes from balance in all the areas of our lives: emotional, physical, social, and spiritual. Often things come up that tip the scales beyond what we can handle on our own. In counseling we work together to help you find that balance again, develop skills where needed, and move you into a healthier place. With a strong background in biology the approach to counseling is very solution focused and takes into account the natural tendencies and responses that may work against wellbeing. I work with couples and individuals looking at issues including depression, anxiety, trauma, sex, menopause, postpartum, parenting, and ADHD.

I’m a psychotherapist committed to helping my clients discover (or rediscover) their potential to live happier and more fulfilled lives.

I work with adults and adolescents experiencing trauma, mood disorders, and anxiety and help others deal with the curve balls life often throws unexpectedly.

You can expect warmth, compasssion, enthusiasm, a sense of humor, and a strong faith combined with education and 31 years of experience. When I work with clients, I focus on their strengths.
