Great to meet you!

I am an experienced therapist, having been licensed in 2005. I work well with couples (including LGBT couples as well as straight couples) and individuals seeking to grow and/or heal from challenging life experiences.

My approach to therapy

My approach is collaborative, curious and non-judgmental. I have training in many modalities and can adjust my approach to what's needed in your specific situation. When possible, I will follow you in a healing direction, and when necessary, I can lead and let you follow. With couples, I will help you to connect in meaningful ways and improve positive communication.

What you can expect from me

Clients leave with a sense of support and a feeling of being understood. Depending on the situation, clients may also leave with a refreshed attitude or new information about how to approach life and relationships
