Great to meet you!

I have over 25 years in the healthcare field and I use a compassionate and personalized approach to mental health care. I believe that every person has a unique story, unique experiences and a unique path for their journey to healing. With a diverse background in nursing, I spent many years in Women's Health, as well as behavioral health. Now, I treat people, of all ages, who are experiencing issues such as depression, anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, PTSD and other trauma related issues.

My approach to therapy

I prefer to take a holistic approach to assisting you on your journey to wellness, that looks beyond symptoms alone to personalize a plan for you. I will work collaboratively with you to uncover possible root causes of emotional struggles. We will explore your physical health, lifestyle, past experiences, trauma, current stressors, coping patterns, and your personal overall life balance. I will help you to identify issues, find solutions and together we will make a plan to help you create meaningful and lasting changes that will help you create and live the very best life you possibly can.

What you can expect from me

Our first session together will include a lot of background to help me understand the path that led you to where you are now. We will develop an understanding and partnership, and we will start making a plan for your next steps. We will discuss medication management, coping strategies, and lifestyle support. Your treatment plan will always be tailored to your individual needs and goals and your unique journey. I believe true healing happens through connection, understanding, and partnership. I look forward to beginning our journey together and assisting you to your best life yet.
