Great to meet you!

I am a therapist who has two decades of experience serving individuals, couples and families from a diversity of backgrounds and needs. I aim to offer a combination of compassion, depth and pragmatism.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My framework is what would be considered "integrative" in that I use a variety of different theory and evidence based techniques to best serve my clients. Some approaches I have been trained in are Transactional Analysis, Jungian Expressive Arts, Cognitive-Behavioral Mindfulness, Systemic/Family Therapy, Relational Therapy and The Gottman Method.
