Therapy is a support that can be used to further enlighten you on your own personal development to communicate more articulately, enhance your relationships, learn how to better cope with stress, become more insightful in your parenting, be better equipped to understand and guide your children, and/or improve your general family life. There is a high value to helping people improve their lives whether it’s working through depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and other issues that keep them stuck and not progressing. Prioritizing our wellbeing is important in maintaining a healthy and balanced mind, body, and soul. We all have a point in our lives when we struggle to find our way through life’s complexities and issues. My purpose is to support you through this journey in finding the right balance for you. As a guide, I like to focus on calming the mind so that we can foster growth and healing. You can gain the tools you need to navigate through your life issues. I provide a safe, judgment free zone, while allowing you the time to focus on your own personal growth. With my experience, credentialing, and extended training in trauma care, I can use my skills to support those who would like to grow and improve their lives. I provide therapy to individuals, adolescents, couples, and families who are interested.

I have worked in the “helping field” for over 20 years assisting young adults to those in the senior years.
