I have experience working with anxiety, depression, OCD, grief, perinatal, LGBT issues, substance abuse, life coaching, and family systems.
Therapy is a relationship where you are the driver and I am your navigator. I am here to help you meet your goals. I am an ally and closely work with the LGBTQ-IA community.

I include family members in treatment whenever appropriate to help build strength and supports. I have years of experience with adolescents and families. I also enjoy and work a great deal with educators/teachers and see many in my practice!

For all of us at different times, life presents its challenges. You may be seeking direction about your career, a mid- life crisis, raising children, work life, elderly parents or grief.

I have extensive experience working with students of all ages, those who are neurotypical and those who neurodivergent, children of alcoholics and those who have experienced adverse childhoods. Parents and married couples also come to my practice

I love using all of my life experiences, degrees, and trainings to best assist you in living your best life; CBT, DBT, mindfulness, emotional resiliency, and Havening Technique (Registered).
Asking for help can sometimes be daunting. No matter the situation, reaching out to a mental health practitioner can help you get clarity about your life. Sometimes genetics determines whether you suffer from anxiety, depression, or stress; sometimes it’s life circumstance, and yet other times its childhood experiences. Regardless of the cause, therapy can provide guidance and support on your path to well-being. Suffering can occur whether you have a diagnosis or not; whether you are smart and successful, or whether you have financial stability. You deserve to live a life of meaning that is balanced.
