I believe that we all come to a place in our lives, maybe once, maybe at several points, where we need support to reach our goals. My focus is to work with you on identifying your obstacles, moving them aside and achieving a happier, healthier life. My hope is to provide a safe, nurturing space free of judgement, for you to process your thoughts and feelings. Whatever your reasons may be for seeking support, I want you to feel empowered to achieve your goals. I believe you are the expert and my job is to support, guide, and make recommendations, but ultimately this is your journey.

I offer counseling for pre-teens, adolescents, and adults either through tele-health or in person in my downtown Bangor office. I focus primarily on anxiety, depression, self harm, relationship issues, parenting, stress and life transitions.
I support and accept all individuals, regardless of race, sexuality, sexual preference, gender, or nationality. I would be honored to join you on your journey toward health and healing.
