You’re doing your best given your circumstances, awareness, & resources. Growth, and a fulfilling, meaningful life is possible when the conditions work for your unique needs. If you have ADHD/Autism, relationship, medical, or identity issues, anxiety, depression, or trauma, you may want your life back- or to feel "normal” for once. From the heavy depths of despair to the bubbly heights of playfulness, what makes life absurd, beautiful, & tragic will be acknowledged, not ignored. “Weird” celebrated, not shamed. I’ll help you embrace the unknown, adapt to change, & move forward.

Your everyday choices reflect the meaning you are attempting to bring to your life. Take a moment to let that sink in...........Big or small, these choice were and are driven by conscious and unconscious hopes, desires, needs, dreams, etc. There are times, however, when you experience trauma, severe life stressors, or times of crisis that negatively impact your ability to make healthy choices that may result in loneliness, confusion, fear, anger, and sadness. Over time these choices produce repeated patterns that impact the quality of your lived experiences.

As a licensed therapist turned coach, I specialize in addressing women's issues. My coaching approach focuses on strengthening core identity, challenging perfectionism and people-pleasing behaviors, and developing effective stress management skills. I am dedicated to enhancing self-esteem and improving interpersonal relationship skills. I help clients challenge negative thinking and outdated belief patterns that contribute to self-sabotage.

Accepting New Clients! Hello and welcome! Life can present various challenges, transitions, and stressors that can be overwhelming at times – perhaps you are searching for help with: grief, anxiety, depression, PTSD, or trauma; family conflict/parenting issues; unhealthy personal or professional relationships; child/teen with behavioral problems; or generational trauma or racial discrimination. I acknowledge the difficulty one may have with seeking help. This may be due to historical stigmas, masculinity associated with being male, or the feeling of “needing to do it all” and not having your power acknowledged or honored as a woman.

As a person, do you find yourself struggling to maintain a balance between fulfilling spiritual, cultural, familial and societal obligations? Do you feel like you have lost your sense of identity while juggling such obligations? In a world full of unrealistic and forced expectations, people often are accused of being rebellious, guilty or selfish when they choose to focus on themselves and their needs. Secretly battling and wounded, many people find themselves to be depressed, anxious, angry, disappointed and unfulfilled.
