Great to meet you!

It is with a diverse background of life experiences, education history and career path that I came to be working with individuals, couples & families to better their lives and relationships.

My areas of focus include anxiety & depression, relationship difficulties, trauma, life transitions, healing after betrayal, and overall wellness.

My work as a Certified Health Coach in an inclusive health & fitness environment enhances my approach to help clients achieve realistic goals and find balance.

My approach to therapy

I bring a mix of compassion, humor & directness to the therapeutic experience and prefer to create a collaborative experience for my clients; which I have seen lead to the empowerment and growth they need to reach their desired goals.

What you can expect from me

It is important to me that my clients leave each session feeling seen and understood, while gaining a better understanding of themselves while taking with them the practical and mindful steps they need to facilitate change in their own lives.
