Everyone deserves a safe place to bring their authentic self and be met with compassion rather than criticism, empathy instead of judgment, and support in place of loneliness.

I am gifted in being comfortable sitting with people in their pain, wrestling together with life's most challenging questions, speaking truth with gentle kindness, celebrating progress and being a soft landing for setbacks, seeing people's strengths, and making people feel seen, heard, and understood.

My four decades of practice has shown that no matter what brings you to counseling, every person wants to live in consistent positive feelings – comfortable in their own skin and enjoying life – able to navigate the ups and downs with resilience and effectiveness – able to solve the problems they face and move forward.

I can help nearly every client I see because I know all people have innate mental wellbeing and the ability to connect to it in a simple way that deepens and endures. Let’s chat.
