There are circumstances in life that may trigger such negative feelings that we can barely stay afloat and function. During such times, we may feel stuck, realizing that all the resources that worked for us in the past do not work anymore. At other times, we may feel okay yet not fully satisfied with our present lives; we may want more but do not know what. I’m here to help you make that journey from surviving to thriving. I combine psychotherapy, coaching, and education. With my husband Michael we also offer Couple to Couple Coaching, drawing from our own professional training and life experiences to help other couples.

Psychotherapy is a good, honest, and interesting conversation amongst equals. It is a guided journey of self-awareness to reclaim our authenticity.

Imagination opens creative alternatives reinforcing a sense of realistic hope. The goal is to achieve meaning, and purpose in all the spheres of our existence.
