I have been a clinical therapist for 20+ years and I love what I do! I want you to feel truly known and understood to create an environment of trust and safety. From there we collaboratively develop ways to address your concerns through insight, skill building, and useful tools. I welcome the integration of your spiritual beliefs and practices into therapy. I am curious and teachable, willing to learn from observation and from others. I am a wife, daughter, sister, and mom of three ranging from elementary school to adulthood with disabilities and chronic illness. I love spending time with my family, good coffee, and taking a walk with a good friend.
