About

We Listen, Act, and Transform

I am here to support your drive to thrive! My approach as a both a licensed behavioral health therapist and certified life coach is empathetic, direct, and focused on helping clients develop insight into how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected. I will build on your strengths and empower you to change negative thought patterns and behaviors to improve your well-being. I have 25+ years of experience in this field, and I truly love what I do. As a Therapist, I have extensive experience helping adults navigate issues like depression, anxiety, substance use disorders, life transitions, relationship issues, self-esteem issues, grief, trauma, among others. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and other proven methods of psychotherapy to help you gain insight into your current situation and create a roadmap for managing your mental health. CBT can help people break out of unhelpful patterns and forge new, more effective paths in life. In my role as Life Coach, I serve as your partner and guide to efficiently assist you in achieving your goals offering evidence-based coaching techniques that builds executive function, emotional regulation, and daily life skills that boost confidence, focus, and resilience. Life coaching is ideal for mild to moderate challenges that may not require therapy but still impact well-being and productivity. These include: Stress or burnout Parenting stress Feeling stuck or finding direction Difficult decisions Life’s transitions Grief and loss Navigating challenging emotions such as sadness, worry or anger Relationship challenges Identity-based stress (like discrimination) Relationships challenges Work-life balance My solution-focused approach has been successful in supporting individuals experiencing increased distress that impacts their thinking, feeling and/or behavioral patterns. I am a dedicated professional who enjoys nurturing positive changes that assist individuals desiring compassionate support. I am truly grateful to be doing what I love for a living, and I hope you feel encouraged to reach out to me and connect whenever I can be of support.
