I feel it’s important to speak out and be clear about my values, and the values of LivLively Wellness.

I want my community to know that you are safe here. This is a shared space rooted in care, respect, and inclusion.

There is a real need right now for more support and protection in our communities. I do not align with rhetoric or actions that promote hate, discrimination, or the removal of human rights. In my work, I strive to support my clients with steady care, compassion, and understanding, while helping them recognize and build their own inner strengths.

I also know that the current political climate can add to daily stress, increase fear, and feel incredibly heavy to carry, especially when it feels like there is little we can do or that our voices don’t matter. Feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or unsure during times like this is a very human response.

If you feel called, support can look small and personal: resting when you need to, staying connected to people who feel safe, setting boundaries around media, checking in on one another, or speaking up in ways that feel good for you.

I'm committed to supporting vulnerable populations and communities, protecting civil rights for all, and continuing to offer a space of care, safety, and support. 💜🫶

Ever felt less stressed when you get home and your puppy friend is there to greet you? Or maybe you go to a gathering and instantly seek out their furry companion?

Animals have a special way of grounding us. They help us slow down, reconnect with ourselves, and regulate stress without ever saying a word. If the hustle and bustle of the week has left you feeling overwhelmed, try connecting with a furry friend—or simply stepping outside to reconnect with nature.

Meet Prada—one of the sweet animals I’ve had the joy of spending time with outside of sessions. Just a reminder that healing doesn’t always have to look like sitting still. Sometimes, it looks like sunshine, soft noses, and deep breaths. 🐴✨

Healing happens in small moments too. 💙

One of my goals at LivLively Wellness has always been to make therapy feel “doable” - not just something you “should” do someday.

That’s why I’m excited to share some changes that make it easier to get the support you want:

✔️Now Accepting Insurance, including Blue Cross Blue Shield, which has been the most requested plan. Im so happy to finally be able to say YES to BCBS clients! 🎉
✔️offering both telehealth and in-person sessions
✔️Providing flexible scheduling (early AM & Late PM options available)

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or not quite yourself - know that support is here and is more accessible than ever!

Let’s walk this path together.
