I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I have dedicated over 25 years to the counseling and education fields, working extensively with children and their families. For the past 18 years, I have served as a school social worker, and for 12 of those years, I have also been the supervisor of the special education department of my school district. My experience has given me deep insight into the challenges children and families face, allowing me to provide compassionate and effective support.

I believe that healing begins in a space where you feel safe, respected, and truly heard. My goal is to create a supportive and nonjudgmental environment where clients can openly share their experiences, goals, and challenges. I strive to meet clients where they are while helping them build insight, confidence, resilience, and lasting wellness.

I provide skilled and compassionate mental health care. I implement different psychotherapeutic techniques, according to your specific needs.

This includes: Psychotherapy, Jungian and Freudian Psychoanalysis, Trauma Informed, Polyvegal Theory treatment (which includes our brain and body connection), Somatic Therapy (which also connects body, mind and breath or spirit), Grief Therapy, LGBTQIA+ informed support if appropriate to you, Mindfulness Therapy based on my life long experience as a yoga practitioner and Certified Yoga Teacher, Narrative therapy for those who like to write, Art therapy to integrate images to the healing process, Attachment Therapy (which includes early childhood relationships to caregivers and how that has influenced you), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (which focuses on transforming your negative thoughts to learn new behaviors and ways of thinkings which are more helpful to your wellbeing).

I implement the above mentioned techniques and others as are appropriate and acceptable to your individual emotional, physical and mental health needs.

I provide mental health care for people of all ages, backgrounds and cultures. This includes seniors, adolescents, and children. My profound and extensive education, and diverse professional experiences empower me to help a wide range of people and needs.
