About me
Together, we can untie your emotional knots by discovering new ideas and solutions. We can lessen your burden and reveal new ways forward. Having a trusted, non-judgmental professional in whom to confide can make a big difference. We all have "baggage" that can can lead to feeling uptight, overwhelmed, frustrated or just confused. Spending time talking with an objective, caring professional in a safe space can help. Allow me to offer support as you strive to be happier in your life journey. Don't struggle alone. There are always new things to learn. We can work together to enhance your strengths and develop healthy communication, adopt new skills and manage the inevitable conflicts and stresses in life. Take that first step toward change and feeling better. You CAN be happier!
My counseling experience includes individual and couples' counseling. I am trained in Gottman Couples' Therapy which is non-judgmental, compassionate, and statistically-based. It teaches couples how to re-connect, build admiration and communicate honestly, thereby re-establishing trust, managing conflict and making dreams come true through communal meaning.
