Welcome to my practice! Thank you for considering working together with me. I am a licensed Marriage Family and Child Therapist, with over thirty years of experience. I have experience, working with people of all ages, from a variety of cultural backgrounds. I have successfully helped many people overcome anxiety issues, depression, relationship issues, and issues related to trauma. It is both a privilege and an honor to be in this profession. I have great passion for this work and believe that therapy can have a significant impact in people's lives.
My goal is to help clients identify and utilize their strengths and achieve their goals. I offer a safe place for clients to face life's challenges and explore new ways of thinking and behaving. My Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Family Systems, and mindfulness centered practice empowers people. I incorporate the Gottman Method in couples therapy.
I bring respect and sensitivity to my clinical work. My clients find me authentic and easy to talk to and they appreciate my humor as well as my empathy and insight. I acknowledge the challenge in taking this first step, but it is through this process that you will find the clarity, understanding and peace you are seeking.
