I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and work primarily with adult individuals and couples in areas of anxiety, depression, parenting, trauma, medical trauma, chronic illness, grief and loss, healthcare workers, infidelity and betrayal. From a 20 year career as a hospital chaplain, I have extensive work with end of life issues, grief and loss, and cultural, religious, racial, economic and gender diversity. I believe in meeting clients where they are at and walking with them on their journey of healing and wholeness.
I have training in the Gottman Method (Level 1), Pragmatic/Experiential Therapy (PET-C), Pia Mellody’s Post Induction Therapy (PIT). I am Certified in Brainspotting and a Facilitator and Trainer of PREPARE/ENRICH for premarital counseling.
I believe in helping clients be their authentic selves in all areas of their lives by healing the wounds and traumas of childhood and developing healthy skills of self-care, self-love and self-acceptance. I am not afraid of the “hard stuff” or the “hard conversations” and I approach them with deep care and compassion.
