About

Experiencing a change of any kind can disrupt one's life in many ways. I specialize in working with clients suffering from depression, anxiety, low self-esteem and relationship problems. I also support clients dealing with grief & loss, infertility and health issues. I have over 15 years of experience working with families and teens in the system who are suffering from trauma, self-harming behaviors, and peer-related issues. I am also skilled in working with First Responders/Military and their families and offer nonjudgmental support. I focus on creating a safe space for healing. My practice is individualized to meet the specific needs of my clients. I work with adults, couples, families and adolescents. I teach Mindfulness techniques to reduce anxiety and depression as well as to promote overall better health. My approach includes helping clients with boundary setting, self-care and finding what truly works in their life. Please reach out for a free 15-minute consultation, and we will discuss the many ways I will be able to support you. I believe we have our own answers, and I want to help you find what works for you to overcome the issues you are facing. I look forward to becoming a partner in your journey of healing.
