I work with each unique individual to develop a plan that works for them, focusing on their strengths. My specialties include Stress, anxiety, depression, self -esteem and relationships, coping with aging/ill parents, dementia, compassion fatigue, and ADHD in children. I bring a compassionate heart and ongoing clinical training to assist my clients in their life journey.
