I work exclusively with couples who are seeking a secure relationship. Relationships are complex for so many reasons, but often not the reasons you think. Together we figure out what gets in the way of you having a relationship that is based on security and true collaboration. "Peace between countries must rest on the solid foundation of love between individuals." said Mahatma Gandhi. Many couples I meet in my office lack the solid foundation to build a peaceful, vital relationship. Without a secure base and solid structure, partners can't relax and be themselves. A secure relationship both grounds and develops each partner.

Everyone is unique and special in their own way, so why should therapy be any different? I've worked with a variety of cultures, ethnicities, diagnosis and age range and feel its most appropriate to tailor my approach to each individual. I have an eclectic array of theories and approaches that I utilize during my time with individuals and find that one thing holds true; having a judgement free safe space that focuses on the needs of the client is what works best.

Reaching out for support takes courage, especially when you may be feeling like you have to walk life alone. I have had the privilege of working with individuals and families in our community in many settings for almost a decade.
