I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the states of PA and DE with over 20 years of experience in the field of mental health counseling and organizational consulting. My approach to counseling is strengths-based, with a focus on helping you to find the positive solutions for your concerns. I have extensive experience working with adolescents, families, and couples. I am knowledgeable and skilled at providing counseling to survivors of domestic abuse, toxic relationships, infidelity, as well as couples seeking counseling to address emotional and physical intimacy concerns.
There are patterns in families and relationships that when altered, can change overall happiness and personal fulfillment. I enjoy helping my clients alter their work and personal relationship patterns. I am also able to help you find better work and life balance to feel more fulfilled in your career.
If you think I may be a good fit for you, please contact me. I offer convenient telehealth appointments for residents of both Delaware and Pennsylvania and in person appointments in Chadds Ford, PA. Appointments may be available at a variety times, please contact me to discuss your scheduling needs.
