Growing up can be tough, and at times it might feel like everything you try when supporting your child isn't working, leaving you frustrated, tired and maybe even overwhelmed. I work to support children, teens and young adults as they work to conquer their current life obstacles and nurture their inner strengths.

Welcome to my practice. I offer a warm, accepting, empathic and non-judgmental place to explore the issues that are creating pain or struggle in your life and relationships.

CBT is especially effective for depression, anxiety and trauma.

As a therapist, I believe simply in a person's ability to change whether it is drawing on the strengths one already has or stepping into the fear and excitement of new discovery. My role is to offer you a safe and respectful place where I acknowledge you, provide compassion for where you have been and support for where you will go. Therapy is a unique relationship built on trust. While I will cheerlead with you, I will also provide a mirror for you to find your own truth and that requires honest engagement and exploration of self. Life can be a challenge and if you are wanting to explore purpose and joy, I invite you to my practice.

Are you an over-achiever with a painful childhood? Do you push yourself to be the best, even when it taxes your personal life and mental health? I help adults like you who’ve experienced chaotic or traumatic childhoods. I understand how exhausting it can be to stay one step ahead of the inner critic and keep hidden the most vulnerable parts inside. I know the toll it takes: low self-confidence, burnout and anxiety. And I want more for you. More confidence, more clarity, and more joy.

Women are faced with many unique challenges, which may lead us to feeling anxious, overwhelmed, lonely, lost or stuck. My personal and professional experiences with infertility and pregnancy loss have given me a unique understanding of the emotional, physical, and financial toll it takes.
