A strong client/therapist alliance has been shown to be one of the most important factors in healing by a large number of studies. I would be happy to offer a free consultation to see if we are a good fit and discuss how I can assist you on your journey towards greater life satisfaction. I enjoy working with individuals, couples and families struggling with parenting. I offer highly structured trauma therapy based in desensitizing and reprocessing negative past events, but many clients prefer a looser structure, with a focus on finding meaning and building on natural supports and strengths.
