My passion is to help people find balance and joy in their life. Many people get overwhelmed with the complexities of life and have a hard time juggling work, family, friends, spirituality, and hobbies.

I also enjoy helping people affected by ASD or ADHD to find hope in the healing process. So learning positive problem-solving strategies, relaxation techniques and brainstorming new ideas together helps to promote an overall healthy outlook.

My specialty lies in trauma and complicated grief and loss. We all need a safe place to talk and express our emotions...knowing that the person listening understands the impact of YOUR loss/trauma on YOUR life. Many times we learn through our tragedies...but ALWAYS it changes who we are and our perspective. By talking out the new emotional/perspective changes, at times forced upon you, we can defuse the shame, the fear, and the doubts; helping you move forward from tragedy. The fact is you CAN move forward, through and past tragedy.
