Are you going through a major life change and feeling unsure of what comes next? Maybe you're adjusting to an empty nest, a career change, retirement, or the loss of someone important to you. These changes can bring feelings of worry, sadness, loneliness, or uncertainty about who you are and what you want from life.


I help adults in midlife and later life work through these challenges with greater confidence and peace of mind. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, family concerns, or changes in your health, you don't have to figure everything out on your own.


My goal is to help you feel heard, supported, and better able to handle life's ups and downs. Together, we'll explore what matters most to you, build practical tools to manage stress, and find ways to bring more meaning and joy into your life.


I believe that even difficult changes can lead to new opportunities for growth. With compassion, understanding, and years of experience, I'm here to help you move forward in a way that feels right for you.
