Everyone is welcome to make steps to improve their life! Whether it is your first time in therapy or you've been going off and on; when you are ready that is when our work begins! Life is hard no matter where you are on the journey, but that does not mean you need to do everything alone. You already have all the power and strength inside of you; I only highlight it.

My practice focusses on helping caregivers, adults, and the elderly. Finding psychological care for seniors can be difficult. Finding support for caregivers can be just as hard. If you are either, then I am here to support you through the loneliness, frustration, anxiety, depression, and major life changes that come with time; and to work on the rifts that damage these important, life-long relationships. Caregiving sessions are for anyone caring for someone of any age or disability. Adult / Elderly therapy is for anyone addressing later-life challenges, especially once their children have left to have families of their own.
