I am a seasoned clinician with 30+ years of working both nationally and internationally with children, families and educational programs. I am licensed and credentialed in both the US and the UK. I have spent my career supporting children, parents, individuals, and couples. I am known for building strong collaborative relationships with families, schools, and allied professionals. The scope of my practice includes early childhood education and mental health, child development, parenting support, couples counseling, adolescent mentoring, women’s health, and expert collaboration with educational institutions.
My approach is very practical and direct. I focus on helping you gain greater clarity as I support you in making meaningful changes in your relationships, parenting, and professional pursuits. Success will be defined by you feeling that you have found a more authentic path toward contentment in your daily life.
When people work with me they feel fully seen and heard. I am warm, direct, clear and deeply compassionate.
