I bring over 30 years of experience working with children, adolescents, and families in education and counseling settings, and I am passionate about helping people navigate life’s challenges in a supportive, practical way. I work with teens and adults experiencing anxiety, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, self-esteem struggles, stress, burnout, family conflict, attachment wounds, emotional overwhelm, and people-pleasing patterns.

My goal is to create a space where clients feel comfortable being honest, understood, and supported as they work toward meaningful change. I especially enjoy helping clients strengthen boundaries, build emotional resilience, break unhealthy cycles, and move toward lives that feel more balanced and authentic.

We all have experiences in life that might leave us feeling broken or disconnected with ourselves, others, in relationships, and the world around us. I believe that healing and wholeness can belong to all of us. If you are looking for someone to support you on your journey toward wellness and restoration, allow me to accompany you on the road that can often feel isolating when taken alone. The therapeutic relationship is paramount to me!
