About Me

I work with adults, seniors, children and families. If you (or a loved one) are feeling depressed, anxious, or have sleep disturbances, low self-esteem, relationship issues or are in crisis, I provide a safe, nonjudgmental environment in which to explore self-defeating patterns or incoherent beliefs to help you to restore harmony to your life. Frequently small changes can have a big impact! I love to be outside – running, hiking, bicycling, kayaking, swimming, camping and gardening. I am originally from New England, lived in Hawaii for 15 years and moved to Northwest Arkansas in 2007.
