Personal Experience & Biography

I work with people struggling with anxiety, depression, and burnout related to chronic conditions like type 1 diabetes. Initially, we’ll work together to clearly identify the issues at hand. Then we develop a plan that utilizes your strengths, values, and new coping skills to improve overall wellness.

I often use a mindful, strength based approach when working toward management of distress and burnout from treatment of a chronic illness. During sessions, I’ll help you learn ways to neutralize negative thought patterns that keep you feeling stuck and overwhelmed. I show up in session as authentically as I can. That means there will be warmth, laughter, and probably some cursing.

My clients tell me that I show up as an authentic person. Someone who can have a real discussion, provide real-life tangible skills, and remain relatable even though our work is done in a clinical setting. My clients often see a gradual improvement in confidence and wellness within the first few weeks.
