I love helping people see new possibilities and opportunities in their life when previously they had faced difficulties. I find it meaningful to be able to support a client or a family in the process of trying new approaches to overcome the barriers they have to what matters. I also love learning about how to make our brains "work" better in our relationships, families, schools, workplaces, and other important social areas!
