Support when life
feels overwhelming
You may be feeling disconnected: from your partner, your family, or even yourself. Communication might have broken down, or you may be stuck in the same unresolved patterns. Perhaps you're navigating a major transition: caring for an aging parent, adjusting to retirement, managing conflict at home, or finding your footing after a loss.
You want things to feel calmer and clearer. You want to understand yourself and the people you love, and move forward with more stability and intention.
That’s where I can help.
I offer individual therapy for adults across the greater Cleveland area, with telehealth available across 40+ PSYPACT states.

Our first meeting is a chance to get to know each other. You’ll share what’s bringing you in, what’s been challenging, and what you hope will feel different.
