Great to meet you!

Hi there! I invite you to learn a little about my background. I specialize in the now issues that are linked to past experiences. I am trained in guiding clients to observe, describe, and transform while in a relaxed state of awareness. I have training in EMDR and Internal Family Systems. I have a master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and extensive training in transformational guided Imagery.

My approach to therapy

I listen for the "story behind the story" to identify the shortest path to the greatest healing. I provide numerous practical tools and skills to immediately begin to experience less anxiety, better communication, and improved outlook for the future. I offer homework exercises, brief meditations, and workbooks, if that interests you. When working with couples or individuals who want to improve relationships with their partners, I mostly work within the framework of the Gottman principles.

What you can expect from me

What are the issues you are bringing to therapy? If all these issues were resolved to your highest expectations, how would your life unfold in the coming days, weeks, months, and years? What would your ideal version of you look like, feel like, and behave like? These are your goals for therapy, and it will be my pleasure to give you the tools, the skills, and the experiences you need to move steadily in that direction. The miracle is in you!
