Hello, and welcome! Life can be hard and bring many stressful, difficult, and painful situations. If you are feeling overwhelmed, sad, anxious, lost, alone, or unsure about your purpose and direction, I’m here to help. My counseling practice is founded on building relationships with clients, offering empathy and compassion, and providing a safe place for you to learn about yourself, heal, and grow. Together we can help you understand yourself and identify tools and strategies to help you support yourself through all the challenging circumstances life brings.
I have extensive experience helping clients age 16+ with stress, anxiety, burnout, depression, trauma, chronic illness, grief, relationships, body image, and perfectionism. I can help with mood issues related to pregnancy, infertility, fertility treatments, pregnancy and birth loss, postpartum and parenting as well.
I enjoy helping people find ways to discover purpose and meaning, but also peace and joy through learning about themselves and their behaviors, learning to accept themselves and address their inner critic, identify what is most important to them, and fully live the life they want to live. Reach out today to see where we can begin.

We'll start by determining what is most important to you to address in therapy. Most of my clients feel relieved to have shared their concerns and challenges with someone who listens with warmth and openness and to have together created a plan to address them in counselling. They feel empowered and hopeful about moving forward and see improvements in their symptoms that are long-lasting.

I frequently use mindfulness approaches in therapy, including Mindful Self-Compassion. At times, examining and addressing our thoughts and thought patterns (CBT), or taking a mind/body approach (Somatic, EFT tapping) work well. As we work together, we will determine what approach helps you most. I also will incorporate personality and value discovery into sessions when indicated.
