Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor specializing in couples therapy across the lifespan and individuals seeking insight and personal transformation. I have 25+ years of experience.

My approach to therapy

Intimacy and connectedness are a vital thread of every stage of life. I help individuals and couples deepen connections and navigate life transitions. Awareness of non-sexual affection can greatly resolve many relational challenges and restore closeness that has been lost.

For couples, where trust has been compromised, counseling offers a compassionate space to explore next steps and envision what healing might look like—individually or together.

What you can expect from me

With a foundation in evidence-based care and a warm, strategic approach, I will integrate clinical expertise with compassionate guidance.
