About My Clients

I tend to work well with anyone going through a major life transition (at any age). If you are feeling overwhelmed by changing jobs, divorce, moving, becoming a parent, aging parents, becoming a caretaker- you deserve some support as you go through these things. A safe place to bounce ideas around, to vent, to cry, to feel joy, to learn coping skills, to learn to not be stuck in the past or present but to be engaged in the here and now.

My Background and Approach

I didn’t want to grow up and be a therapist, but I did know I wanted to help people. When I discovered what therapists do I was so excited! I just knew it was the right career path for me. I worked full time doing therapy at an agency for almost 15 years. While I was there I saw a wide variety of clients. I have a lot of experience working with couples and relational issues. I worked with a lot of individuals struggling with different mental health issues such as anxiety, OCD, grief and loss, trauma and loss. I also worked with a lot of women’s issues. I truly enjoy working with all all of these things and more importantly, collaborating with clients to come up treatment goals that make sense and are client driven! Please reach out to me to schedule a free 15 minute consultation, I try my best to respond to all inquiries within 24 hours.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I learned about therapy as an undergrad student working as a receptionist at mental health clinic and I saw the changes that clients made. I became fascinated by therapy and it lead me to pursue a career in it. I’ve also had my own highly transformative experiences in therapy. I love to read, I probably have 200 books waiting to be read on my Kindle! I have three kids, one of them adopted. Between being an adoptive mom and having worked as an adoption social worker for many years, I am passionate about all things foster care and adoption related. I am working to become a CASA (my husband was one for years and loved doing it). I am active in my community, participate in marches (with my kids of course!) for gun control and Black Lives Matter. We are active in our faith community.
