Great to meet you!

I have been in the field for many years and have worked with all different populations. I am very engaging and empathetic. I specialize in grief/bereavement and end of life issues. I also specialize in any life changes and challenges.

My approach to therapy

I like to engage my clients right off the bat and work with them to find peace and comfort in their lives.

What you can expect from me

I like to use the first few sessions to engage in conversation about what brings them to Headway and what they are hoping to get out of the sessions. I would like to explore what goals they have and what they would like to accomplish in our sessions.
