Provider information

Description

My many years spent working in the non-profit sector have shown me the impact that an authentic connection with others can have and the inherent strengths individuals possess for coping with life's greatest challenges. Together, we'll explore which approaches will honor your unique experiences at a pace which feels most comfortable for you. I specialize in working with a range of concerns, including: anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, loss and grief.  If you're ready to take that first step, I'd be honored to walk alongside you.
