Now Accepting New Clients! Are you feeling overwhelmed? Are you anxious, on edge or worrying all the time? Often anxiety and stress can make it difficult to manage even every day tasks.

Clients come to me to feel heard, navigate a tough season in life, and learn practical ways to start feeling more like themselves again. I work with adults experiencing life changes, relationship difficulties, depression, anxiety, or struggling to cope with being "deeply feeling" or "highly sensitive." As a Perinatal Mental Health Trained Provider, I specialize in working with women before and during pregnancy and the early years of motherhood. Many of my clients are seeking support for feelings of ambivalence, grief, postpartum depression and anxiety, "mom rage," work/life balance, and other daily challenges of parenthood.

I am actively working with you in each session to understand and resolve your problems. I encourage you to take this opportunity to discover new aspects of yourself, better ways of relating to others, and greater satisfaction in life. Individual counseling will help you to understand and change feelings and behaviors that have caused you to suffer and feel disatisfied with life. Couples counseling will help you resolve your relationship problems and conflicts while also discovering the positives in yourself and your partner.

I have a special interest in working with teens as well as adults in their 20s and early 30s who experience anxiety and stress. I'm here to help you gain the tools you need to feel relief and to approach your life in a more authentic way.

I believe that it is my job to make this process as safe and comfortable as possible through a confidential and supportive therapeutic environment.
