About me
I’m here to provide meaningful support to couples, families, and individuals both in person and online.
I bring empathic attunement to clients as they work through relationship difficulties, feelings of anxiety, difficult life transitions, and related concerns. Whether your goals are known or require time to distill, our work will support your efforts to move closer to meeting them.
My approach is warm and collaborative, keeping your needs and goals at the center of the therapeutic process. I rely upon a range of modalities drawing upon my training in family systems and relationships, trauma work including EMDR, grief and loss, and holistic healing.
