A Holistic Approach to Healing & Growth

With over a decade of experience working with adults, children, teens, couples, and families, I'm passionate about helping families strengthen their relationships, navigate conflict, and thrive together.

My approach is holistic and systemic — I focus on understanding the deeper roots of emotional and relational concerns, and tailoring support to each unique family dynamic. I work with a variety of mental health challenges, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, stress, self-esteem, and relationship issues.

I work with individuals, couples, and families who are looking for a deeper understanding of their individual and relational patterns, in order to connect more deeply with their loved ones and gain self-awareness. Together, we'll explore your history and current patterns, and determine areas that will most improve your wellbeing.
