As a marriage and family therapist, I'm committed to helping individuals, couples, and families learn how to increase confidence, improve communication, and deepen intimacy in their most significant relationships. I have a B.S. in psychology and an M.A. in marriage and family therapy with over six years of experience working with children, teens, and adults from a variety of backgrounds, orientations, and cultures. I believe that life is about relationships first and everything else is just details, so whether I'm working with you as an individual or part of a couple or family, my hope is to help you create healthy and fulfilling relationships with yourself and with others.

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

The first session will be a time to get oriented to the therapeutic process, allow the client to ask questions, help us get to know each other as client and clinician, and to establish the client's primary purpose for seeking therapy. The first session is also when we will start to set goals for treatment.

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

Regardless of the issue you come to therapy for, I begin with a strengths-based approach. I see you as a person first, not just your problems, and meet you where you are without judgement or criticism. While I may be an expert in the process of therapy, you are the expert of your life, so I will work with you to help you identify and reach your goals.
