I strive to provide a warm, respectful, comfortable environment for you to explore your life and areas of discontent. I believe people can benefit from therapy at any stage in life, things come up and often we need a sounding board to gain insight into our future goals or past experiences. When something is off in our lives, it is difficult to figure out how to move forward to achieve balance. My goal is to help you feel supported and empowered to make significant changes in your life and improve overall well being.
I have enjoyed working with a wide variety of clients including individuals who are dealing with lifelong chronic illness, maternal issues; including perinatal mood disorders, trauma or loss, parenting, and adults who are trying to figure out their path in life, coping with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma, and relationship issues.
The first step to feeling better is already behind you, just by seeking out care you have started on your path to wellness. I hope you will allow me to be part of your journey, feel free to call me for an initial consultation.
