Great to meet you!

Therapy works best when you don't have to leave part of yourself at the door. With more than 25 years working with individuals, couples, and families, I help people navigate anxiety, trauma, depression, grief, and life's hardest passages. I work with adolescents, adults, and seniors, and my practice welcomes people of all faith backgrounds as well as those without religious beliefs. Whether faith is at the center of your life or not part of it at all, you are welcome here.

My approach to therapy

Together, we focus on something you can actually feel: reduced anxiety in your body, more clarity in your thinking, and practical tools for when things get hard. For clients working through trauma, our work builds toward a different relationship with the past. Over time, what happened stops having so much power over what's happening now. I also work with couples and families, and for partners, our work draws on deep research into what makes relationships last and how to find your way back to each other.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is a real conversation. I want to know what's brought you here, what you've already tried, and what you're hoping therapy might make possible. There's no checklist, no pressure to have a polished story. If you're ready to work with someone who has 25 years of experience and will meet you exactly as you are, I'd love to connect. Reach out when the time feels right.
