Great to meet you!

Life happens in unexpected ways. Whether adjusting to a sudden life change or a known life transition, you may be feeling emotionally overwhelmed and exhausted. The time period of transitioning to adulthood is stressful enough and dealing with anxiety, hopeless feelings, or just uncertainty on how to move forward can make it unbearable. I'm a Licensed Professional counselor who helps young adults (20 -40 yo) and women navigate these challenges.

My approach to therapy

Life can be hard, but therapy doesn't have to be. I embrace modern technology and offer affordable secure online therapy and in person walk therapy. My approach combines elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness, expressive arts therapy, and positive psychology.

What you can expect from me

Making the choice to get help is a courageous step. I am here to provide a safe space, listen, and help guide you through the process of being at peace, balanced, and more satisfied with life.
