About

I work collaboratively with my clients to help create positive change. I see individuals and couples, using an integrative therapeutic approach grounded in psychodynamic and relational theories. I am trauma-informed and trained in evidence-based models including Emotionally Focused Therapy, the gold standard of relationship therapy, and Discernment Counseling, for couples on the brink. My clients are facing a range of circumstances, such as coping with depression, anxiety, stress, mood disorders, trauma, grief and and loss, chronic illness, struggling relationships, and life transitions.
