As the owner and director of Relationship Therapy and Consultation (RTC), I have a deep passion for sitting with people during their darkest times to uncover their truths and strengths that lie within. We all need help along our journeys and it takes great courage to reach out. At RTC, safety is key to healing. We strive to provide that sense of safety to every client that we serve, working towards solutions together. We will help you build more meaning, connection, intimacy, and hope in your life. We affirm the dignity, value, and worth of all clients and promote an atmosphere of openness, respect, and growth.
I have a master's degree in Marriage, Couple, and Family Therapy. I am trained in Narrative Exposure Therapy, to support healing from traumatic stress. I have extensive experience helping people overcome addiction, substance use, trauma, eating disorders, and relationship issues.
I look forward to speaking to you over the phone or via email to see how I assist you in deepening your connection with yourself and with those around you. Your connection matters to us. Let's nurture it together.
