Great to meet you!

I hold a Ph.D. in Marriage and Family Therapy (couple therapy specialization), and an MA in Counseling Psychology. I have over 15 years' experience working with adults and couples. I am passionate about working with couples who are experiencing challenges in their relationship and need help to restore the love and happiness they once shared.

My approach to therapy

I take an empathetic stance and provide attentive listening while meeting you wherever you are on life's journey. I allow for open dialogue between partners.

What you can expect from me

Life does present numerous obstacles and hurdles that we have to negotiate, and we need someone to walk with us through those challenging times. I believe that relationships will not always be smooth sailing and that there will be periods of rough seas that couples will have to navigate as well. I offer to help you navigate the bridge over troubled waters.
