As a licensed therapist with over three decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex life transitions, emotional challenges, and personal growth. My practice focuses on helping clients address depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and family conflicts with compassionate, personalized care.
I bring deep expertise in supporting older adults, veterans, first responders, and individuals experiencing significant life changes. My approach is particularly attuned to challenges related to midlife transitions, aging, caregiving stress, and personal identity exploration.
My therapeutic work centers on helping clients work through guilt, shame, attachment issues, and emotional healing. I provide a supportive environment where individuals can explore life purpose, develop healthy coping strategies, and move towards greater personal understanding and resilience.
With a commitment to creating a non-judgmental, affirming space, I draw from extensive clinical experience to support clients through diverse emotional landscapes. My goal is to empower individuals to navigate their unique journeys with strength, self-compassion, and meaningful insight.

Casual approach, always very honest with me, gives me things to think about and motivate me to push for what I need to change my situation.
