I’m a licensed counselor with a background in gerontology and public health, and I’m trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). My approach is friendly, compassionate, and grounded in evidence-based techniques designed to help you process both present struggles and past experiences that may still affect your well-being. I help my clients feel more connected to others and the things that matter most in their life. I teach simple and effective skills that allow better management of stressful situations in everyday life.
In our first meeting I will ask some questions to get to know you. We will work together help develop goals for our working relationship. But I want you to guide our time and I will be a helpful and nonjudgemental listener.
I quickly connect with my clients and offer a kind, safe, and supportive environment to effectively work together on their healing and evolving. I have a strong understanding of the dynamics that come into play as we age and the systems we must navigate.

I teach practical mindfulness skills so clients can be in tune with their body and their surroundings and tune out the often unhelpful chatter in their minds.
I use a compassionate and honest approach to help people identify and change the thoughts that can dictate their experiences.
I use EMDR interventions that allow painful memories and beliefs to resolve into resilient shifts.
Life and its transitions come with many losses, not just of those close to us, but relationships and our own identity changes. I help my clients navigate this difficult process with self-compassion and greater understanding.
