Are you feeling overwhelmed by everything that you've got on your plate right now? Are you a mom who finds herself trying to balance her family, her career, and squeeze in self-care when you have even a second to breathe? Are you experiencing depression and/or anxiety and finding it difficult to feel that you're at your best? Life is tough, and motherhood is a wildly wonderful yet challenging journey. I love working with, and supporting, other mothers or anyone struggling. You are so much to so many people. Take some time out for you.

In therapy with me you'll be in the driver's seat, and I'll be there by your side to engage, encourage, guide, and support you along the way. I take the time to discuss with you what you are hoping to get out of, and achieve in, therapy, and I tailor my style around that. I pride myself in offering sessions that are interactive, lively, humorous,& supportive
I welcome you with open arms. I'm so proud of you that you have decided to seek support and I encourage you to contact me so that we can discuss what beginning sessions together could look like.
