Are you unhappy in your life? Unhappy with your relationships? Are you looking for an experienced therapist who will listen to what YOU WANT and need? I am a kind compassionate seasoned professional who will help you understand yourself better. I have an engaging and collaborative style. I help clients struggling with life transitions, relationships and depression/anxiety.
I teach couples to communicate effectively, create intimacy, & sustain great relationships. I help separating couples to respectfully divorce, create parenting plans, and co-parent effectively. I work effectively with adolescents struggling with school, depression, self-harm, and gender questioning.
I listen to what my clients want and adapt my approach to best meet your needs whether it be a short-term consultation, a 4-month couples therapy, or intensive long-term depth psychotherapy. I utilize psychodynamic, relational, cognitive, behavioral and practical treatment approaches to help my clients.
