I am passionate about working with clients from all walks of life while providing a safe, compassionate, non-judgmental, and supportive environment. I enjoy using an integrative approach to therapy that is collaborative and based on the client’s expressed needs and goals. I am trained in Levels 1 and 2 of the Gottman Method of Couples Therapy, which aims to enhance communication skills, strengthen friendship and intimacy, and create shared meaning in relationships. In addition, my work with clients is informed by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).

Time is our most valuable commodity. I work with individuals and couples to support them in making growth choices. This enhances their time wherever it is spent, such as in relationships, career, with family, or enjoying hobbies and recreation. I offer psychotherapy or executive coaching. My career and personal development services take into account the changes ahead for most industries as they incorporate new technologies such as A.I and robotics, and the effects of this on the individual’s career path and decisions. I also offer career testing for ages 14 and up. Email is the fastest way to reach me.

Change is inevitable. So what happens when the consequences of the change are so negative they severely impact our lives? We sometimes feel stuck, unsure of what direction to proceed. In my practice, WalkinTalkinTherapy, I provide an avenue to address these changes by combining the simplicity of walking outdoors with talk therapy. Advocates of the combined approach say that being active during the session helps patients relax and open up - scientists have long known that a workout can temporarily boost serotonin levels and improve mood, the latest research shows that exercise can have a deeper and more lasting effect.

If you're like most of us, life can get pretty busy, complicated, even overwhelming at times, and we push aside those big questions that trouble us - who am I? how do I really want to live my life? what is important to me? what's next? These questions don't go away and often resurface - whether we want them to or not - during times of loss, death, and transition, when everything familiar has been stripped away, and we are left feeling frustrated, uncertain, and alone. It is exactly during these times that therapy can help.

These are stressful, challenging times. Living a human life can be hard. Each of us is likely to encounter problems or dilemmas that leave us feeling depressed, anxious or overwhelmed. We may have been hurt a while ago but still unable to get past it. We may seek relief yet not find resolution. Often we are caught between wanting to get through something, yet enacting ineffective behaviors meant to keep us safe. This is when it can be helpful to have someone help us face what life is asking from us.

Life isn’t easy; it’s no wonder so many of us feel weighed down by depression, crippled by anxiety or tangled up in family conflict. Sometimes we get so overwhelmed, we’re not sure what we even feel anymore. Emotionally and physically exhausted, it’s hard to know where to start or find the energy to look for help. Just making that first phone call itself can feel so daunting. We put it off and the days drag on; we may begin to feel like, “What’s the point?" But you're reading this, which means you've already taken the first step. I believe meaningful change is possible with the right support. So here's what comes next:

Have you experienced a traumatic event, or multiple traumatic events, that lead you questioning when the next bad thing will happen? Have your experiences led you to negative self talk and to feel hard on yourself? Oftentimes someone who has experienced a traumatic event will find themselves feeling ashamed and a burden to those who love them. I enjoy empowering clients to process the heavy things on their heart and mind that maybe don't feel safe to share with others. Together we can build coping skills, incorporate mindfulness techniques, and utilize EMDR to get you moving forward with less stress.
