Life is dynamic and full of challenges. Sometimes we are presented with difficulties that we do not feel equipped to handle. Major life concerns, relationship difficulties, or old patterns can leave us feeling stuck, overwhelmed, and/or uncertain about how to move forward.

Regardless of your reason to seek support, I want to acknowledge your courage for reaching out and exploring something new to improve your life.

There are many benefits to working with a counselor or psychotherapist. You may gain new insights and understandings, as well as new and effective ways of approaching difficulties and challenges.

No matter where you are in your life, things can get better.

My approach is primarily integrative in nature and is strongly influenced by considering what is most useful to your particular needs. I place a great deal of importance on facilitating positive regard, empathy, and compassion with clients. My personal style is genuine, supportive, and encouraging.

One of my specialties is helping couples and individuals handle conflict in their relationship as an opportunity for growth. Through my extensive training and research (dissertation topic- Conscious Intimate Relationship), I am able to offer many skills and methods to help clients deal with challenges within their relationship more successfully.
