Great to meet you!

Greetings Headway!

After twenty years as NY public school educator then administrator, I've pursued my passions in mental health: self care, self empowerment, communicating and "loving better" in all relationships.

My approach to therapy

My therapeutic style is affirming, inquisitive, motivational, creative, intentional for all clients' needs and preferences.

What you can expect from me

Our therapy goals will always be co-created and progress monitored together. These are your goals, aligned to your desired growth, and I'm a competent accountability coach!

My individual and partnered clients have shared they enjoy our "down to earth" safe space, bursts of psychoeducation, opportunities for self reflection and inspiration... highlighting strategies to increase self love and relationship happiness.
