I provide a compassionate, non‑judgmental space for individuals and couples to pause, reflect, and move forward with intention. With over twenty years of experience, I support clients navigating relationships, blended family dynamics, divorce, ADHD, cancer‑related stress, and military‑related challenges. My style is direct and solution‑oriented, and I partner with Headway for simple scheduling and insurance support.

I help adults and couples who are struggling with stress, relationship strain, or major life changes. In our early sessions, we'll look closely at what's been hardest and set clear goals together. Treatment focuses on building insight and practicing new skills, and most clients begin to feel more grounded and supported as we work together.

I often use the Gottman Method and CBT in my practice. In our first session, we'll talk about what brings you in and set clear goals together. With these approaches, we'll look at patterns affecting your stress or relationships and practice skills that help you feel more grounded and supported.
