Whether you are struggling with anxiety or depression or you have a history of trauma that goes back into your childhood.
I work with a broad range of clients, which may not seem connected, but inevitably it is. I enjoy working with kids, teens, young adults, moms, and couples. What I incorporate into my sessions is authenticity, humor, and a pragmatic approach. I often say "let's throw spaghetti at the wall and see what works". I love working with those are actively involved in the therapy process. It's a collaboration between myself and the client. I draw from several modalities, so the approach is tailored to each client. I enjoy couples, divorce/separation, neurodivergent people, PDA (in children) and failure to launch.

I love working with a variety of clients with a wide range of challenges, but I have a true passion for working with young children and their parents.
We all wish life’s journey could be an easy one, but the reality is the path is not always smooth. Life can be filled with uncertainty, conflict, and hard choices.

Whether you are an adult, child, teen, parent, or whole family, I am able to help. I consider it a great privilege to be allowed to walk with people on their life's journey.
