I welcome all clients, but spend most of my time working in the areas of neurodivergence (autism, ADHD), eating disorders/feeding disorders, anxiety and mood disorders, women's issues, young adult issues, relationship conflicts, identity exploration, and parent support/education.
I consider myself a "clinical opportunist" with an educational, brain-based, and feminist approach to therapy. I value providing clients with tangible skills to manage their mental health while also providing education that's aligned with my clinical mindset & values. Over the years, I have gained a majority of my clinical experience and education through supporting children, adolescents, and adults on the autism spectrum. I have gained a passion and commitment to providing neurodiversity-affirming care to my clients, and education to families, teachers, and other professionals who work in collaboration with me and my clients.

I utilize a broad range of therapies, including cognitive behavior, solution-focused and person-centered to address depression and anxiety, mental health disorders, aging, life transitions, relationships, grief, caregiving issues, parenting, women's issues, sexuality and spirituality.
I assist adults in healing their hurts and transforming their lives for the better. You are not alone and you do not have to carry your strains and stresses by yourself. My clients can develop a better sense of self, live in healthier relationships, and grow in confidence focusing on strengths to find balance by providing solid, practical tools and skills to support healthy growth throughout the life cycle. You deserve to be part of positive life experiences supported by a companion to "walk" with you on life's journey. Doing so allows you to find balance in the ebb and flow of life.

My field of specialties include: Women's issues; Relationship conflicts; Abuse, trauma and loss; Shame and Co-dependency; and Sex and Love Addiction.
Relationships are vital to becoming a whole person, including your relationship with yourself. But quality relationships don't happen by accident. Real love is built the old fashioned way - through hard work. Whether you're struggling with how you view and treat yourself or struggling with others, therapy is a wise investment and can help you learn to manage the very best of who you are. This involves developing a skill set that will enable you to learn how powerful you really are in forming lasting connections with others and take an honest look at the barriers to those connections.

I believe in the power of human connection to get us through life’s challenges. Reaching out for help in our most vulnerable moments can be difficult and overwhelming. Our self-talk can be so convincing that we should figure things out on our own or that our problems aren’t as bad as they could be, that we remain stuck. I will meet you where you are in your challenge, providing a safe and calming environment to explore avenues to find hope and healing. My work takes a holistic approach integrating the mind, body and spirit connection to help you create a strong foundation to meet those challenges.

Women's Issues Therapists
How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can women prepare for therapy?
Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.
How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.
How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?
Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
