About My Clients

My clients come from a variety of backgrounds, belief systems, and circumstances. Most of my clients are cycle breakers in some form. My clients are dealing with major life transitions and stress. They want to explore the deeper purpose of navigating their lives in a more balanced way and more consciously so that the direction they head in is the best fit for them on multiple levels. My clients want to live happier, calmer, healthier, balanced lives but with purpose, meaning, and passion.

My Background and Approach

I have over 20 years of counseling experience beginning with my work as a social worker with at-risk youth at age 21. I have since worked in various settings including agencies, group practices, schools, homes, and communities with all age ranges. My focus has shifted from family work and work with children to working primarily with adult individuals since 2018. As a therapist I would describe myself as wise, grounded, holistic, kind, and often humorous. My clients love my down to earth humor and my ability to connect with them in a compassionate way. My clients love the many angles/perceptions I bring into our sessions. I enjoy empowering my clients to set healthy boundaries, self care, heal their trauma, and stay more present in their lives. I am truly honored to be a therapist and to assist my clients thru some of the most challenging times in their lives.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I am the parent of an autistic child. I have cofounded a locally based autism educational and program advocacy group. I identify as a neurodiversity affirmative therapist.
