I have a strong belief that we all desire to live well. When circumstances arise that threaten our ability to live well we must stop, refocus, and begin again. I would like to support you and/or your family through the process. I have a wealth of experience with individuals, children, and families. If you find that you have experienced a life changing event (marriage, birth, divorce, new/ending job, death) and would like support during the transition I can be of help. I am well versed in the treatment of depression, anxiety, grief/loss, behavioral issues in children/adolescents, and family relational issues.

Hello and welcome! I am so glad you are here and have made a courageous choice to seek healing. Like our physical health, I believe we must also take into consideration the “vital signs” (mood swings, sadness, irritability, excessive worry, etc.) that indicate the state of our mental health. Whether it is caused by stress from overwhelming responsibilities, parenting, past trauma, or even just having difficulty communicating needs to family members and friends, I believe these can all be signs that we need a little extra support and I would like to be that support for you.
