Introduction

You don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone. I offer a warm, supportive space where adolescents, adults, and athletes can feel heard and understood. Whether you’re working through trauma, behavioral issues, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, or a difficult life transition, we can explore what’s getting in the way and move toward meaningful change at a pace that feels right for you. I’m trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), an approach that can help clients process distressing experiences and work toward relief. I’m also trained in Play Therapy, which gives children a developmentally appropriate way to express themselves, build coping skills, and work through challenges. In my work with athletes, I support clients with concerns such as performance pressure, confidence, motivation, and balancing sports with other parts of life. My approach is collaborative and tailored to each person’s needs and strengths.
