Great to meet you!

I have been practicing for over 17 years providing Individual and family therapy. My focus is to facilitate strategies and interventions that will bring you hope and transformation.

My approach to therapy

My frame work is eclectic, solution oriented, and evidence based therapy techniques.

What you can expect from me

In sessions we will focus on expressing emotions, exploration of attempts to avoid distressing thoughts and feelings, explore recurrent themes and patterns, discuss past experiences and interpersonal relations. You will receive quality of care throughout your therapeutical journey. I provide Couples Therapy and have experienced great success in the past years assisting couples navigate communication issues and intimacy. Couples have a safe space in my practice where both partners can become vulnerable and find a way back to one another. I am a certified Sex Therapy Informed Professional.
