About Me
I welcome individuals and couples who are experiencing challenges in their communication and relationships, grappling with grief, loss, divorce, or significant life transitions. These painful experiences, while difficult, can provide profound opportunities for self-reflection and personal growth. With a background in bereavement therapy in a hospice setting, as well as personal and professional experience with major illness diagnosis, I bring a wealth of experience and insight to my practice. My therapeutic approach draws upon psychodynamic methods, mindfulness techniques, Gottman's research, Brainspotting, and DBT.
As a practitioner, I strive to create a non-judgmental and empathetic space, where you can feel understood and supported. I believe in the power of direct intervention while maintaining a compassionate stance. Humor often finds its place as we navigate the defenses that hold you back, enabling you to embrace a more fulfilling life.
I hold deep admiration for the courage it takes to seek help, and I consider it a privilege to be part of your journey toward transformation and healing. I believe in the power of therapy to change lives; fostering emotional resilience, enhancing relationships, and empowering individuals and couples to live authentically. Whether we meet in person or through teletherapy, I currently have available appointments to accommodate your needs. I look forward to hearing from you today!

Couples
In couples therapy, I aim to nurture the bonds of your relationship, foster open communication, and facilitate mutual understanding. I believe that every relationship, much like each individual, is unique, deserving a customized approach that respects its distinctive dynamics.
Whether you are seeking to heal from past hurts, improve communication, manage conflicts, or deepen intimacy, couples therapy can provide the necessary guidance and support. I acknowledge the vulnerabilities that couples face and strive to create an environment where both partners feel heard, valued, and understood.
I believe in the potential for relationships to grow and heal, regardless of their current state. Together, we can explore patterns, address hurts, and find new ways of relating, ultimately leading to a healthier, happier relationship.
