Great to meet you!

As an LMFT, teacher, wife of 30 plus years, mother, and grandmother in a family impacted by ADHD, I contribute a lifetime of real-world experience to my clinical expertise.

If you're short on hope, borrow some of mine!

ADHD Clinical Services Provider (ADHD-CCSP) Certification: Strength-Based Interventions to Thrive with ADHD from Childhood to Adulthood

My approach to therapy

I employ psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, Ackerman Relational Approach (ARA), and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) in individual, couple, family and group sessions, tailoring my approach to your needs.

I build on your strengths to support you to take actionable steps to attain a calm and balanced life.

Reach out for a complimentary 15-minute phone consultation. I look forward to meeting you!

What you can expect from me

Expect a welcoming, non-judgmental space to share your concerns and goals. As we get to know each other and build trust, we will co-create a treatment plan to guide our work together. I favor a short-term, solution-focused therapeutic approach.

Life is too precious to spend more time in therapy than necessary!
