I am a clinical mental health counselor with a deep passion for helping clients navigate life’s challenges with compassion, authenticity, and a touch of humor. Before entering the counseling field, I spent over two decades as a professional classical musician, public educator, and leader: experiences that strengthened my belief in the power of empathy, collaboration, and connection. 

I see clients of all demographics and specialize in working with adolescents, clients with ADHD and neurodivergent experiences, those managing chronic pain (ChP), and clients who struggle with sleep-related difficulties. I believe therapy works best when it provides a safe, genuine space for exploration, laughter, and growth.

Whether working with teens developing self-understanding or adults seeking balance and clarity, my goal is to help each person feel seen, supported, and empowered to discover meaningful change.
