I offer a safe, therapeutic environment that allows you to explore your conflicting experiences. I enjoy working with individuals, families and couples.

Do you feel that navigating through life's difficult moments can be a struggle and that you have limited opportunities to focus on finding solutions? Do you feel anxious when working through major changes, immobilized by depression, or sense the bonds within your family are weakening? Your world can feel overwhelmed, if there is instability in a new relationship, or by trying to keep a marriage together. I offer a safe, therapeutic environment that allows you to explore your conflicting experiences. I enjoy working with individuals, families and couples. My primary therapeutic approach is a blending of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Narrative Therapy with Somatic and Mindfulness Practices. Together we can identify ways to successfully manage life's chaotic circumstances.
