Everyone faces situations that can make life seem overwhelming. I know it can be difficult to make the decision to seek out help. But I also know from experience that the decision to face a problem directly is always a decision of strength. I consider it a privilege to work with individuals, couples, and families who are caught up in the stress of life and who need practical and effective strategies that will help them cope more effectively.

When you are struggling with an issue that's causing you pain, you want a therapist who will make you feel comfortable, and provide you a safe healing space. I help people work through childhood issues, trauma, PTSD, anxiety and depression, letting go of the emotional baggage they've been carrying around for years. Often, people find the wounds of childhood hold them back in adult life, don't let this be you. Whatever your issue, know you will find a spirit of acceptance as I help you to work through whatever is causing you emotional pain. I'm told my voice is calming, the British accent I expect, and my sense of humor appreciated.

For over 17 years, I have been helping children, teenagers, and adults develop coping skills and tap into their inner strengths so they may heal, grow, and live their best lives. I am compassionate and meet individuals where they are to collaborate, identify, and work towards personal goals. I utilize a strength based, solution focused approach to therapy. I practice relaxation skills with individuals, so they are able to build confidence with using tools and resources on their own.

I work with all types of learners within and outside of neurodiverse communities. All parents deal with a range of challenges: hitting, biting, refusal, sleeping issues, eating struggles, getting your child to speak their first word. You are not alone.
