If you are living with stress, anxiety and doubt you have come to the right place. We specialize in anxiety management by processing anxiety, to heal the root causes. I help individuals develop practical and powerful techniques that enable them to feel more peaceful by calming the nervous system based on polyagal theory. My approach is centered on working collaboratively with my clients to understand their unique needs and challenges.

Depression can feel overwhelming and rob of us of our energy and vitality, but it does not have to be that way. Don't let depression hold you back any longer.

Together, we can increase awareness, find your agency and power and move out of the shadows of self-judgement and a brighter world. I am here to help you tune-up your life and find renewed energy and vitality.
