I have over six years of experience supporting young people through the challenges of growing into adulthood. My clients are older teens and young adults (approx. ages 16-21) who are struggling with anxiety, depression, life transitions, identity questions, and relationship challenges. As someone who has struggled with anxiety, high sensitivity, and finding my place in the world, I know what it’s like to get stuck; to struggle to ‘launch’ into independence; and to feel shame, guilt, and self-doubt as a result. This informs the way I show up as a therapist: nonjudgmental, affirming, and supportive.

Life has a way of throwing challenges our way that can feel impossible to navigate alone, but you don't have to carry that weight by yourself. With over 30 years of experience as a therapist, I have worked with individuals of all ages—from young children to seniors—helping them find clarity through life’s most difficult transitions. Whether you are dealing with relationship struggles, depression, or the complexities of grief and trauma, my goal is to provide a steady presence that helps you find your way back to yourself. I feel privileged to help my clients achieve their goals and improve their lives by drawing on both my clinical training and the wisdom gained from decades of practice.
I believe that true healing happens when you have a space to speak freely with someone who isn't connected to your daily life or family circle. I bring a blend of professional expertise and extensive life experience to our sessions, which allows me to understand the nuances of the human experience beyond just a clinical lens. Outside of my work in the office, I enjoy staying active in the local community and find that a balanced life helps me show up fully for those I serve. I want my clients to feel safe and empowered during their time with me, knowing they have an experienced advocate committed to their well-being.
