Relationships are complex, whether marriage, domestic partnership, family or friends; we all occasionally need help navigating the currents that are continually in a state of flux.

Everyone wants to live a life with self-compassion and strong connections to those they care about most, but sometimes we need some help along the way. Therapy can be intimidating, so my number one priority is to provide an environment of safety and trust. For me, the road to healing begins when we recognize that we are each our own worst critic, and that it is okay to not be perfect all the time. I strongly believe that therapy is a collaborative experience, and my main goal is for you to leave each session feeling uplifted, hopeful and one step closer to reaching your personal goals.

Picking up the phone or sending an email asking for help, can be really hard. With me, you have nothing to fear.

No judgment, just compassion, a great listening ear, some humor (when appropriate), and an enormous amount of respect for the person you are.

I provide an environment that is safe, supportive and nonjudgmental. My clients have ranged from 10 years old to elderly.
