While working together, we will focus on simple steps to address life issues.
As it is said, big journeys begin with small steps. We will work at your pace and I will respond with an eagerness to appreciate and acknowledge your experience.
Counseling works best when you are paired with someone who shows you that they care. Listening to understand is an important step toward a fulfilling therapeutic relationship. You will be heard, validated, and given the opportunity to create a treatment plan that works best for you.

Life can sometimes feel overwhelming, leaving you wondering if this is all there is. You might recall times when things seemed brighter, when relationships were more fulfilling, and when you saw yourself in a more positive light. Now, things feel different, and you might feel stuck, yearning for a life that truly reflects your best self.
Throughout our lives, we navigate numerous changes in friendships, romantic relationships, careers, personal growth, and even physical locations. These transitions, while a natural part of life, can often bring discomfort and uncertainty. It's important to remember that you don't have to face these challenges alone. Therapy offers a safe and supportive space where you can explore these feelings, understand them, and learn to navigate them healthily.
In our sessions, we'll embark on a journey together to understand where you are now and where you want to be. We'll explore strategies to manage challenging emotions and develop a personalized plan for your life journey. Our conversations will be guided by your pace and comfort, focusing on what matters most to you.
Whether you're an adult facing life's complexities or an older adult adapting to new life stages, know that there's a path forward. I am here to listen, understand, and support you in discovering and walking that path. Let's begin this journey together with an initial no-cost consultation, where we can start shaping the vision of your best life.

Processing past trauma
Today's children face so many obstacles. They deal with the overwhelm of managing school and jobs and exploring new relationships. They may face anxiety or depression in a world that demands so much attention. Perhaps they are working to figure out their identity.
One-on-one support for your child can help on the journey of creating a healthy family dynamic. My goal is to help children and parents learn practical communication skills, explore the thinking behind actions, and learn new coping skills for stress that can improve family relationships and help children learn needed lifelong skills. Contact me today if you're a parent or caregiver seeking help for yourself or your child, ages three and up.
Using mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy, and play therapy within a plan tailor-made for your child, we can assist children in working through their feelings, increase family communication, and lay the foundation of successful relationships.

You have the right to receive a "Good Faith Estimate" explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don't have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non- emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services. You can ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises
