How I Can Support You
My educational background in psychotherapy, as well as my experience as a social worker in the healthcare industry for 30 years, has provided me with a unique view of the world. Utilizing a holistic approach, I have served a plethora of clients from varying cultural backgrounds. Many dealing with grief and loss and in need of support, empathy and strength.
Life is a precious gift that anxiety and depression can interfere with. The everyday world is stressful, impacting our relationships with those we love, as well as our inner peace. This all can be overwhelming. Understanding how important it is to nurture our body and mind, as well as these relationships, is empowering and can lead to fulfillment. Together, in a non-judgmental and safe space, we can work on strategies to find your inner balance and peace.

My Approach
I see therapy as a collaborative space to reconnect with the parts of life that feel meaningful—but may have been clouded by stress, anxiety, or depression. In our work together, I offer a supportive and non-judgmental environment where you can feel safe to explore your thoughts, emotions, and relationships. I believe healing begins when we tend to both the mind and body, and I use a holistic approach to help you find balance, resilience, and clarity. My goal is to help you feel more present, at ease, and connected to yourself and others.
Rituals: daily walking, my yoga routine, tapping, dance

Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or simply feeling disconnected from yourself, I’m here to help you feel more grounded, empowered, and whole.
