Invest in your personal growth and healing with therapy

We all have a tendency to put others first, but in doing so, we can sometimes neglect our relationship with ourselves. Many women are tired of saying “yes” when they really want to say “no” but feel guilty if they do. Moms love their kids to the moon and back, but also are exhausted from trying to manage it all. Let me be your advocate and show you a kinder, gentler way to treat such an important person - YOU.

Improve your relationship with others through counseling

Be your best self, alone and with others, and cultivate deep and lasting friendships and relationships. Communicating with others can be tricky. We all carry past wounds that makes sifting through the messy words to get to the real meaning without more harm almost impossible.

Whether you're facing significant stress or simply needing a supportive person in your life to help learn the therapeutic tools to conquer daily struggles, I provide a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space for you to grow into a renewed sense of control and enjoyment of life.

I specialize in supporting women and post-partum moms find joy, hope and healing in the midst of their daily responsibilities. If you are facing some challenges or just not feeling like yourself lately, let’s get in touch. We can work together to work towards feeling like yourself again.

I use a holistic approach that draws primarily from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), focusing on challenges in the present moment and modifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. You CAN learn to control your emotions, express your feelings effectively and set boundaries with confidence.

Take the first step towards a happier and healthier you! Call or email me today to get on the road to feeling better. I'm here to help with maternal support, couples therapy & grief/loss. Let this be your turning point to a more peaceful and fulfilling wholehearted life.

“You can turn your shame to joy, your anger to advocacy, and your inner critic into your biggest champion.”
