Great to meet you!

I love helping busy women with boundary issues go from feeling detached and living unbalanced lives to connecting to their whole selves so they can have brighter days and thrive in all areas of their lives. Let me be your co-pilot in your wellness journey.

My approach to therapy

With over 29 years of clinical experience as a psychotherapist, I will be there to support, encourage, and reinforce your progress in therapy. My practice seeks to restore busy and stressed out women, offering them effective tools and holistic interventions that will help them to better manage their symptoms, thoughts, emotions, and/or behaviors.

What you can expect from me

My goal is to provide a space place where you can feel accepted and heard from the first session and throughout the therapy experience.
