It is never too late to start a new beginning. Today can be the day you turn the page and create the next chapter of your life.

Life is hard and sometimes we just need someone to listen and understand what is going on. I enjoy my work with clients- helping people to understand themselves and those important relationships. Our work will focus on the importance of catching emotions in the act. Emotions cause us to move in one direction or another. We get to choose that direction. Trauma can also be a powerful motivator- causing us to avoid certain things or move into dangerous habits. Healing from trauma can be a long journey and going it alone can be scary. Help from a good therapist can propel you into your best life. Go ahead & make that call! Supervised by J.

I specialize in treating trauma of all intensities, child defiance/misbehavior, anxiety, depression, and clients with ADHD. My goal is to foster a caring, inclusive, and healthy community and that starts on the individual level. Through therapy, I want individuals to achieve the best version of themselves that is confident, content, and proud of themself.

Life can be tough, but so can you! I take tremendous joy in creating an environment where you can be the real you. Therapy is a sacred space where you can share your story, show up as you are and be heard. You are the expert on your own lived experience and I strive to honor that. Whether you need a space to process, a listening ear or a sounding board, it is my honor to be there for you. My approach to therapy combines warmth, compassion, and humor with clinical know-how. I am a strong believer that the relationship between therapist and client is key to the work being done, a collaboration of minds and energies. I work primarily with children, teens and young adults. You might call me a “slice of life” counselor. Whatever you’ve got going on in your life, let’s talk about it! No issue is too big or small. Together we may explore issues such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem, trauma, identity work, stress, and how to enrich the relationships in our lives. I applaud you for taking this first brave step in your journey towards wellness. If you think we would be a good fit, please reach out today! I am excited and honored to start this journey with you.
