The first step to making a positive change in your life may be intimidating or even frightening. My services are available for those seeking the support of a professional to assist with this process.  

We all experience adversity in our lives. Sometimes we maneuver through life's challenges with ease and finesse while other times we become overwhelmed. Differences in how we manage these challenges often come down to the level of stress we experience in our day to day lives and the resources we have available to us.

I believe that you are an expert in your life. My experience lies in helping people make the changes that matter to them. Counseling offers a professional’s support in navigating life's challenges. This is a collaborative process in which you determine where you want to be and I show you the steps to get there.

​A good therapist will assist you in

• Identifying your personal goals

• Strengthening your support system
