Even the strongest person can be challenged by difficult experiences, whether in past or present life. Feeling overwhelmed by what is facing you or unsure how to make the changes you want can leave you feeling isolated, frustrated, scared, confused, and/or stuck. I help people facing these issues as it relates to life transitions, anxiety & depression, trauma, relationship and/or parenting concerns. Clients who seek my help are from all walks of life who are looking for someone who is warm, empathetic and listens without judgement. No matter your life stage or circumstance, I understand life is complex including our choices.

As a therapist, I take an integrative trauma informed approach to counseling, drawing from a variety of techniques. This means that we will use the best approach to meet your goals and needs in a way that resonates with you.

One of my core beliefs is that each person deserves to feel seen, heard, and valued. You will be treated with empathy, compassion, understanding in a non-judgemental manner. I enjoy working with clients from all walks of life in an inclusive and supportive manner. I am a LGBTQIA+ ally. If you feel we are a good match, please reach out.
