About My Clients

I support adults and seniors navigating grief, aging challenges, caregiving stress, chronic illness and addiction. My clients come from diverse backgrounds including LGBTQ+, HIV/AIDS, immuno‑disorders and single parents. Together we build safe, empowering spaces to honor each unique story and foster resilience.

My Background and Approach

With over 37 years of clinical experience, I hold ACSW, ACHP‑SW and BCD certifications and am a Board‑Certified Telehealth Professional offering video, phone and messaging sessions statewide. My therapeutic style is relaxed, collaborative and judgment‑free. I integrate strength‑based, motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral and solution‑focused techniques to address bereavement, chronic illness, addiction, anxiety, depression and caregiving challenges. My goal is to help clients rediscover purpose and peace at every stage of life.
