Are you ready for a deeper, more meaningful approach to healing? If you’ve been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward, whether due to trauma, a major life transition, or ongoing emotional challenges- you’re not alone. My work goes beyond traditional talk therapy. Rather than focusing only on surface-level concerns, I offer a holistic, integrative approach designed to support lasting transformation. By addressing the mind, body, and inner self as interconnected systems, we create space for deeper healing and sustainable change.
With over 20 years of experience, I support clients through a wide range of challenges, including: Trauma and PTSD, Anxiety and depression, Relationship and modern dating issues, narcissistic abuse, divorce, Grief and loss, ADHD and addiction, Eating and personality disorders, Life transitions, career development, and purpose after retirement.
My background includes a Master’s degree along with advanced study in neuroscience, nutrition, and epigenetics—allowing me to bring a well-rounded, informed perspective to our work together. I believe therapy should feel supportive, collaborative, and tailored to you. Every session is designed around your unique needs, with a focus on helping you reconnect with yourself, build resilience, and move forward with clarity and confidence.

Counseling & Coaching compliment each other. Therapy focuses on addressing past traumas & mental health concerns, while coaching focuses on helping individuals achieve future goals & optimize their performance in specific areas. One often involves exploring the root causes of problems, helping clients process emotions & develop coping mechanisms and the other focuses on setting & achieving goals in the present & future, leveraging strengths, action-oriented strategies & resources for personal & professional development.

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years of experience working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families to create meaningful, measurable change in how they feel, function, and relate to others. My approach is evidence-based, empathic, and solution-focused, with therapy centered on helping you achieve clear goals so that progress is noticeable in daily life.
