Sometimes, showing compassion to ourselves and accepting our need for help is the hardest step. I recognize how hard it may be to reach out, and am grateful you have found my profile. I will work collaboratively with you to create a space where you can explore your true feelings, create fulfilling and honest relationships, and transform your suffering into joy. I am authentically with you, supporting you as you unpack all the stories of your life that have lead up to this moment and helping you rewrite your outcome. I return all inquiries within 24 hours and accept most insurance.
I provide a safe place to explore issues such as depression, anxiety, and major life transitions. I work with couples navigating pre-marital counseling, parenting, relational conflict, and also offer family counseling for separation and divorce. One of my main areas of focus is on individuals and families caretaking loved ones who have disabilities.
My approach is grounded in CBT, IFS, Narrative Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy. My life experience adds to my perspective as a clinician. Before becoming a therapist, I spent 20 years leading teams at global organizations and raised two boys of my own. I also majored in Creative Writing and have written two novels.
