I have been helping patients deal with depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma, infertility, grief, and adjustment issues for 30 years. I really enjoy seeing a patient improve their coping skills and thereby improve their life. Most of my new patients say that I put them at ease and they are very comfortable with me.

Life can be challenging. The trials we experience can sometimes steal our sense of joy and comfort in this world. Even the strongest people need support when things get tough. Although helpful, the support that we receive from friends or family is often not enough to endure the challenges we face. Together, we can work to improve your life by developing skills and strategies needed to gain a new perspective. My hope in working together is that you will feel reinvigorated for life and learn to experience joy once again. Lets chose joy together.

Life events are like pieces of a puzzle that create the picture of where you are today. I have worked with women who left abusive relationships for the safety of a shelter to addicts/ alcoholics looking toward the path of recovery and now with mentally ill clients who seek a normal. I work on relationship issues, life transitions, anxiety, depression, addiction, abuse, trauma, PTSD, grief and loss, and codependency. I am a straightforward, caring, intuitively connected therapist that gets to your core issues to help you better understand how you got to where you are, how you can get unstuck, and how to move forward.

If you were to put together a list of the most important people in your life, who would be on your list? We all live in relationships and when we are not in harmony with them this can cause anxiety, sadness, confusion, low self esteem and worth. Our core relationship is with our self. I invite you to take the journey inward, to explore, and learn how to bring out your greatest potential.

Is worrying waking you up at night? Does anxiety seem to sneak up on you when you least expect it, or make you feel like you can't live the life you yearn for? Are you tired of feeling so "frozen?"
You're so much more than just your symptoms. Feeling anxious, frozen, or sad simply takes up too much energy that you could be using to feel happy, productive, and free. Isn't it time to get unstuck?
