Great to meet you!

I work with individuals and couples on relationship and communication issues (which usually include anger, depression, and anxiety, and sometimes include domestic violence and substance abuse), alternative lifestyles, compulsions, and career counseling. Certified Subspecialties: Anger Resolution, Substance Abuse, Hypnotherapy, and Coaching.

My approach to therapy

My approach is collaborative, practical, and deeply relational, helping clients understand the patterns that keep them stuck while building clearer communication, stronger connection, and renewed purpose.

What you can expect from me

In a first session, we meet, greet, and begin a friendly and meaningful dialog how we might work together and what would be most valuable to you for collaborating with me in this process.
