Further information

I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals from ages 5 to 80, supporting them through a wide range of challenges, including trauma, anxiety, relationship struggles, and significant life changes.

I understand that each journey is unique, and my goal is to create a warm, safe, and non-judgmental space for you to explore, heal, and move forward. If you have any questions, big or small, please feel free to reach out—I’m here to guide you with care and understanding.

I offer a free, no-obligation telephone consultation, where we can talk about what you're going through, your needs, and how I can best support you. This is a great opportunity to ask questions, explore your options, and decide if we’re the right fit to work together. It’s an important first step toward receiving the support you deserve and ensuring you feel comfortable and confident moving forward.
