About me
As a licensed psychotherapist of 20 years, I am deeply committed to helping individuals and couples navigate personal challenges, improve emotional well-being, and strengthen relationships. My approach is client-centered and integrative, drawing from a range of therapeutic models including body-centered therapy, mindfulness, and emotionally-focused therapy. I provide a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts and feelings, gain new perspectives, and develop healthier ways of relating to themselves and others.
In working with individuals, I help clients address issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and self-esteem. With couples, I focus on enhancing communication, rebuilding trust, and fostering deeper emotional connections. Together, we work toward creating meaningful change that supports personal growth, resilience, and fulfilling relationships.
As an experienced psychotherapist, I am passionate about helping individuals and couples cultivate deeper self-awareness and more fulfilling relationships. I integrate mindfulness practices into my therapeutic work, empowering clients to stay present, reduce stress, and create meaningful change. My approach is grounded in empathy and collaboration, ensuring that every session is a safe space for personal growth.
With a focus on relationship dynamics—whether between partners or within oneself—I work with clients to build stronger connections, improve communication, and heal past wounds. I bring years of experience to the therapeutic process, combining evidence-based methods with a compassionate, client-centered approach. Whether you are seeking support for anxiety, relationship issues, or personal development, I am here to guide you on a path of mindful transformation and emotional well-being.
