I have been a therapist since 1985. My degree is in Transpersonal Psychology where spirituality and psychology meet. I took ten years off from practice to raise my kids and then started up again working with new moms. In 2010, I taught Kabbalah. My specialty is working with people who are on a spiritual path or are religious. I survived my own cancer treatment in 2009 and am fully in remission. I also saw my husband through his demise from Dementia in 2020. These kinds of difficult experiences have given me the strength to rise again after being beaten down. I can help you do that too.

I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with experience working in community mental health, co-occurring substance use treatment, and residential care settings. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use challenges, mood disorders, relationship stress, and major life transitions.

I believe therapy works best when clients feel heard, respected and supported without judgement. My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and tailored to each client's unique needs and goals. I draw from CBT, motivational interviewing, and strengths-based approaches to help clients build insight, emotional stability, and healthier coping strategies.
