Overview

When clients first come to see me, they are often overwhelmed by anxiety and/or depression. They feel stuck and are coping in ways that aren't in harmony with the person they want to be.

My integrative approach is guided by the principles of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), incorporating cognitive-behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices to help you embrace challenges and create a meaningful life aligned with your values. I am also a certified nutritionist and lean into cultivating mind-body awareness to help enhance your well-being.

My expertise includes alcohol abuse counseling, recovery coaching, trauma, ADHD, mindfulness, and boundary setting. Clients describe me as calm, grounded, and insightful.
