Do you feel isolated, alone, and misunderstood as a woman struggling with alcohol, anxiety, or self-worth? Do you find yourself stuck in the same patterns—overdrinking, people-pleasing, or self-sabotaging—even when you want change? Is it hard to slow down, be present, or sit with your thoughts—without reaching for distraction or alcohol? Do you feel as if you are always in “go mode,” even when you’re exhausted? Are you focused on others’ needs instead of your own? Are you hesitant to talk to others about your problems? I believe that meaningful change begins with understanding and self-compassion.

Therapy offers a fresh perspective to help you break free from old patterns, develop new skills, and respond more intentionally to life’s challenges.

Well, let me tell you why, you are worth it and it’s never too late to invest in YOU! I have many years of experience counseling great people just like you, working together to navigate life’s obstacles, find common sense solutions, and help guide and support you during life transitions. If you allow me to go on this journey of change with you, I will focus on a person-centered approach where your needs, goals, and objectives will be the roadmap for our work together. I will use evidence-based treatment techniques, largely based on Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you identify and change patterns in thinking and behavior that may be contributing to your current dissatisfaction. But perhaps even more important than the therapeutic approach employed, I will endeavor to build a relationship with you by being present, genuine, honest, and compassionate. I have learned that the outcomes my clients achieve are often a reflection of the strength of our therapeutic relationship. So, are you ready to partner with me as you endeavor to overcome the situations, relationship challenges, or symptoms that seem to be barriers between you and your best life? If so, I am committed to walking with you on your journey.
