I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with extensive experience supporting individuals, couples, children, adolescents, and families. I hold a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy, a master’s degree in School Counseling, and a bachelor’s degree in Social Science. My professional background includes providing therapy in private practice, school, home, and community-based settings.
I specialize in relationship concerns, family conflict, anxiety, emotional regulation, parenting challenges, trauma, life transitions, self-esteem, and communication difficulties. I also work with couples who want to strengthen their emotional connection, rebuild trust, improve intimacy, and develop healthier ways of managing conflict.
My therapeutic approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to each client’s needs. I incorporate evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, family systems interventions, and Gottman-informed techniques. I strive to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to create meaningful and lasting change.
Thirty years ago I walked into a psychiatric unit as a nurse — long before I became a therapist — and learned something no textbook teaches: people carry the weight of addiction, trauma, and grief alongside jobs, families, and survival. That weight doesn't announce itself politely. Today, I bring that clinical depth to therapy with adults and older adults who are ready to stop white-knuckling through and actually get somewhere. Whether you're managing a decades-long wound, fighting to stay sober, or facing a depression that just won't lift, I have likely sat with someone who felt exactly where you are.
