What makes my story unique is that I’ve personally been in the client’s seat. It was through my own healing journey that I discovered my true purpose—to offer the same kind, compassionate support I once received during a challenging time in my life. I’m passionate about giving back in this way and hopeful that together, we can bring healing and growth not just to individuals, but to the wider community as well. I’m passionate about helping teens, parents, and individuals feel empowered, understood, and supported. With over five years of clinical experience in both private practice and school settings, I’ve worked with people from all walks of life.

In our work together, clients can expect to set meaningful, personalized goals that support emotional growth, improve communication, and strengthen self-worth. Whether you're a teen building confidence, a parent navigating tough transitions, or an individual seeking clarity, we’ll focus on creating lasting change from the inside out. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, empowered, and connected—both to yourself and those around you.

Together, we will develop realistic goals and find solutions that can make a difference in your well-being.

Let's join forces to help you find the answers to those questions. My clients describe me as comforting, helpful, relatable, down-to-earth, funny, challenging and calm. They say I have a warm approach and am a good listener. My teenage daughter stated, “mom, you speak in Facebook (inspirational quotes)!” I have longer-term programs to help reduce the effects of anger, manage the symptoms of anxiety and depression, and process grief and loss.

In my previous career, I was an actor, and love working with artists of all types. I understand Hollywood and show business and the difficulties that come with creating a career out of an artistic passion.
