Great to meet you!

Experience as a couple & family therapist helps me support adults individually or with loved ones in session. Experience as a play therapist and school counselor helps me dive into children and teen's issues. I understand that anger is a part of life, and see individuals, couples and families who are struggling with conflict in their relationships.

My approach to therapy

My goal is to empower you as a source of healing for yourself and your loved ones. Expect to work actively with me in session individually or with your loved ones. With younger children, play therapy will be a key part sessions. With older children, teens, and adults, I will structure sessions so we can discuss difficult topics productively.

What you can expect from me

In each session, we will set collaborative, flexible goals. I hope that you will leave each session with an idea of small changes you can make within yourself and/or your relationships that will add up to lasting improvement.
