My experience includes depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting, life transitions, and grief. Because of my varied background, I have worked with a variety of clients and issues. As a counselor, my goal is to meet each client where they are, find where they want to go, and help navigate the path.

While those are the ones I lean to most heavily, I tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs with what suits each individual client best. It takes courage to seek help and guidance and if you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you! **Scheduling Note: I see a limited number of clients and that is reflected in my schedule with most time slots being early morning. While I would love to work with everyone, I need to keep my numbers limited to provide the best level of care to my clients.
