About me
I practice strengths-based, goal-driven therapy. Through a solution-focused lens and collaborative approach, I am a warm and empathic partner who provides the safety, insight, and tools–without judgment–that allow you to do courageous work and create the meaningful and satisfying life you crave.
Synergy perfectly describes what happens between therapist and client. The strong connection we build leads to achieving more powerful outcomes than are possible by doing this work alone. My passion driving this work is supporting individuals & couples on the journey toward self-actualization. As a clinician, one of my greatest strengths is the diverse professional and personal experiences I bring to my work with clients. I am a parent to an amazing daughter. My decades-long career spans industries such as education, entertainment, and financial services. The combination of my life and work experiences are what allow me to understand and have genuine empathy for your experiences, challenges, hopes, and dreams. Whether you are seeking deeper connections in relationships, more fulfilling professional pursuits, or you simply want to be more confident and experience feelings of greater well-being, I can help. In addition to a solution focused foundation, I am an integrative therapist who believes that clients, through our work together, reveal what works best for them. Together, we will identify priorities and goals and create an action plan to achieve what is most important to you. The dynamic synergy that occurs between therapist and client is what fosters growth, and as a result, change. Let’s talk and discover what we can accomplish together.
