About me
I am an experienced couples counselor and parenting support therapist. I help families feel connected, improve communication, decrease conflict, and restore joy.
I am a warm and direct communicator and believe that communication and insight are the heart of relational improvement. I am passionate about helping people reflect inward to develop a personalized plan forward. I welcome you arriving as your authentic self and enjoy implementing humor and laughter in our sessions together.
I focus often on the mind body connection and how it impacts us all. I am here to listen, to witness, and to provide honest feedback about what may be going on from an outside perspective and how things could shift.
have previously worked at a children’s community mental health agency providing in-home therapeutic support to children and caregiving support to their families and running a crisis stabilization program. In this program, I focused on and received advanced training on how to support recovery from trauma and other life transitions, managing caregiving, parenting values exploration, attachment, and adoption.
Once in outpatient setting and with transition to primarily telehealth focus shifted to supporting adults navigating individual life challenges, relationships, communication, couples counseling, divorce, and co-parenting.
I utilize evidence-based therapeutic techniques in a collaborative process when working with individuals, couples, children, and families to achieve their goals for well-being. I enjoy incorporating solution-focused therapy, motivational interviewing, and cognitive behavioral therapy in addition to advanced therapies below.
