Great to meet you!

Looking for an experienced provider who fits your scheduling needs? With more than 25 years of counseling under my belt, I am able to provide my clients with a supportive, non-judgmental environment that feels like talking to a trusted confidant. Whether it's anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, PTSD, or another emotional concern, I can assist you in working through the feelings and situations troubling you. I have specific training in working with military families and veterans as well as first responders and physicians, and can offer solution-focused options for individuals, couples, and families. In addition to traditional morning and afternoon session in person or via telehealth, I offer telehealth sessions during non-traditional hours including evening, late night, and early morning times on an as-needed basis.

My approach to therapy

If you're anxious about making a big decision, trying to heal your heart broken, hoping to make sense of a traumatic experience, or simply feeling overwhelmed with life, I offer a comfortable space where you can process your feelings and just "be you." My approach to your needs is individualized to meet each client's specific objectives and goals. Whether you're someone who wants to brainstorm solutions, process the many years of trauma you've experienced, or use worksheets and readings to help you achieve your therapy goals, I can support you in your efforts toward becoming a stronger, happier version of yourself.

What you can expect from me

I'm a creative person and an on-the-go thinker who works with my clients to come up with new ways of looking at a situation. I'll offer insight and help you get a fresh perspective on how things have played out in your life and what you can do to shake things up and move beyond the struggles weighing on your mind and heart.
