About Section
Water

Here for the beginning, the between & beyond

Are you feeling overwhelmed by challenges related to: family-building, grieving a loss, ongoing pain or health concerns, providing around-the-clock care for others, finding "you" in life with kids, life after a traumatic event, or a major life transition?

Feeling challenged is not failure.  It is human

 

We need connection, support, and sometimes, healing. Having an experienced therapist in your corner can help you with exactly that.
