Great to meet you!

I have been a mental health counselor for over 27 years providing psychotherapy services to adults, children and families who are experiencing emotional, behavioral, or relational distress. I am certified in Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing and have been trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness. I have practiced yoga, Tai Chi, meditation, and running since 2001 for mind-body integration, mindfulness awareness, and relaxation.

My approach to therapy

My treatment approach is client-centered, strength-based, trauma-informed, and mindfulness oriented. Client self-determination, establishing a safe holding space, self awareness cultivation, coping skills integration, self-resilience building, deisolation, barrier removing, traumatic memories reprocessing, and making lemonade out of lemons are few examples of treatment objectives as clients are in their individualized healing journey.

What you can expect from me

You will be entering into a safe, validating, and supportive space. My clients typically tell me how much better they feel after one session.
