Great to meet you!

Several decades in practice have given me the experience to come along side clients in a confident, non-judgmental way, in order to equip them with the tools they need to address their mental health and relational needs.

My approach to therapy

I've adapted a solution focused approach to my background in cognitive behavioral intervention and a faith-based approach.

What you can expect from me

Clients will get practical intervention strategies to implement in each session in order to allow therapy to feel relevant and helpful.
