About

Feeling stressed with daily demands within family, work, or social life can be signifcantly overwhelming and in some cases unbearable. I am here as a faciliatator to help guide and motivate you to reclaim your life, empower your inner being and strength, and develop and maintain a sense of personal balance and fulfillment. I have extensive experience in treating individuals with depression, anxiety, trauma, family stress, interpersonal conflicts, marital issues, parenting, ADHD, and grief and loss. I find that it is equally, if not more, important to listen attentively and respond with thoughtful insight to help individuals find their own way. I firmly believe that there is ultimate healing and redemption in facing our truths, working through our fears, and overcoming personal insecurities. Individual healing is a process and I believe I can help you on your journey of developing a clearer sense of self.
