I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 23 years of experience helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges. My warm and engaging approach lets clients know they’re in a safe and caring space. We all reach points where life feels overwhelming, and it’s okay to admit we need help. I’m here to work with you—not to direct or tell you what to do, but to explore options and strategies together. I’ll help you identify and change the negative thinking patterns that keep you stuck, and we’ll practice new skills to better manage life’s challenges. Along the way, we’ll celebrate your progress as you move toward a more satisfying and fulfilling life.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, my primary goal is to get to know you as an individual. I want you to feel a genuine connection, where you are truly heard and understood. Whether or not we continue working together, I hope you leave our first meeting feeling less alone and more connected. During our conversation, we’ll explore not only the challenges you’re facing but also your strengths and accomplishments. It’s important to me that you feel supported and recognized for who you are, right from the start.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My greatest strength as a therapist lies in my genuine care and interest in others. I create a comfortable, non-judgmental space where people feel safe to open up, knowing they won’t be shamed or looked down upon. I often share my own experiences, including challenges I’ve faced, to show that change is not only possible but achievable. I see the strengths in my clients and believe in their ability to overcome difficulties. I’m down-to-earth and practical, avoiding jargon and speaking in everyday language. I believe deeply in our shared human connection, and part of my mission is to help my clients feel that connection with me and empower them to connect with others.
