Every individual comes with a community and a cultural identification existing within the context of greater society. Through an emotion focused/ family systems lens, I enjoy listening to and collaborating with individuals, couples, and families to therapeutically address each of these layers.

Pursuing a better self is a challenging journey. At times, you can feel lost and unsure how to break yourself out of the never-ending cycle.

Online Only! I work with adolescents through various work experiences.

I create a safe environment in order for my clients to be able to open up and find healing in all aspects of life.

Do discussions with your partner often lead to yelling or angry silence? Do you find yourselves arguing about the same issues year after year with no resolution? Learn to restore harmony in your home with communication skills that create guardrails for safety (I sometime call them training wheels or bumper pads).

When the best of intentions devolve into disappointment, misunderstanding, and hurt feelings, it might seem like there is no way back to the romantic bond you once enjoyed. It can be done, and together we will plot that course!
