You belong here just as much as anyone else.

The complexities of being a woman are so often taken for granted — the pressure of balancing work, partnership, study, and parenting. I offer support for anxiety, trauma, relationships, and the demands we face as partners and parents, with a special affinity for single parents. Much of my own healing came from facing my father-wounds and learning healthy boundaries, and now I'd love to help you begin your own path toward wholeness.

Using play therapy, art therapy, and other hands-on techniques, I help children and teens express their emotions, manage anger and frustration, and navigate challenges like phobias, mood regulation, divorce, ADHD, and autism. With nearly 20 years of experience supporting children, teens, and college students, I create a space where young people feel understood.

I say it often: men need a soft place to land. Conditioned to be strong and stoic, men's needs are too often dismissed — but we're all human, and we all deserve a safe space to set down the weight of who we're "supposed to be." Some of the most powerful transformations I've witnessed have been with male clients, and I offer that welcoming, non-judgmental space to husbands, fathers, brothers, and veterans.

Working with couples is an invigorating challenge that truly ignites my passion. I've helped many couples repair their union, rekindle intimacy, and reconnect through healthier communication. Counseling works best when both partners show up open, honest, and respectful — and healing doesn't require either of you to be perfect, only willing to learn, grow, and practice new habits.

Mended Hearts Counseling is an inclusive practice, welcoming individuals and couples in the LGBTQIA+ community. When requested, I offer faith-based counseling from a Judeo-Christian perspective, and I also work with people of many faiths, races, and socioeconomic backgrounds.
