I specialize in helping clients move through the pain and grief of life’s most challenging transitions. I’m passionate about supporting women dealing with divorce after betrayal, infidelity, and abandonment, as well as helping clients navigate the grief accompanying the death of a loved one and honor the less-recognized grief of transitions(changing jobs, moving, becoming a care-giver, empty nesting, and more). I offer coaching sessions and packages targeted to each client’s individual needs.

LIFE IS SUPPOSED TO BE GOOD! I’m here to help custom-tailor a strategy for making this declaration a reality for YOU. Problems with communication? Suffering from anxiety or depression? Is a loss keeping you stuck? Do you have a history of abuse/trauma? I can help. Coaching services: life direction and acquisition, couples’ negotiation/mediation, combatting complacency, getting started, learning when and how to let go, setting limits with others and self, learning to love yourself unconditionally.
Simply put: I live my passion for helping others become their best selves, whatever that means for them. We ALL have something that holds us back, right? Let’s dissect what’s NOT working, strategize a plan for moving beyond that and, simultaneously, magnify what IS working!
I have been in the therapy and coaching fields for 21+ years (yes, I started when I was 6) (just joking) and have enjoyed success helping patients and clients overcome varieties of problems. (See below for specialties.) My approach involves providing education, compassion, empathy, and direction so that my clients attain their goals and actualize their desires.
I offer individual, couple/marital, and family therapy for those 18 and up.
