I feel honored to join with people in their personal and relational odysseys and find myself continually in awe of the inner capacity of each person to heal and grow. I am easy-going, compassionate, and direct in therapy. I use my education and experience—professional and personal to support clients facing difficulties, discover hope, and change in ways that resonate with their goals. I have worked with people preschool age up through the golden years, in individual, couple, and family settings.

I love learning, making beautiful things, yardwork, and being outside and active year-round. I am the mother of five adult sons and grandmother of four. I treasure the friendships that have developed within my family and enjoy both the rambunctious and the tender moments we share.
