Great to meet you!

Hello! I have been a practicing Marriage and Family Therapist since 2004 with a focus on health relationships of all types. I am passionate about helping from a systems perspective. Even in individual therapy, my focus is on how relationships have helped form our life narrative and how we can change our lives by changing our thinking about them. These shifts in worldview help us stop participating in our own suffering in conditions we usually cannot change.

My approach to therapy

I consider myself a Brief Narrative Therapist as my approach. In recent years I have focused a lot of my helping work on ADHD, helping people more fully understand and cope with executive dysfunction. I’ve also worked extensively in faith transition with people from a variety of religious backgrounds as they navigate that challenging time.

What you can expect from me

I usually meet with people weekly or every other week. I acknowledge that it can be really difficult to come into therapy or coaching initially and sessions can sometimes be emotionally draining. I make every effort to support clients while offering the professional expertise needed to allow them to make positive changes in their lives. My passion is meeting people where they are and helping them grow through self awareness to live happier more fulfilled lives.
