About

I am a Therapist with over 10 years experience and 20+ years in mental health/crisis management. My approach is slow and gentle - I believe it takes time and comfort for a clinical relationship to grow and develop.

I specialize in Depression, Anxiety, aging, unexpected illness, Substance Abuse and needing time for self care.

I look forward to meeting you.
