50-Minute Therapy Session in Office or Secure Online Video Therapy
$150/session

I love being a psychotherapist who helps people rewrite their stories to bring more meaning and passion into their lives. Through active listening and collaboration, my goal is to help clients adopt a more fulfilling narrative. I am passionate about building a culturally and gender-sensitive therapeutic alliance that welcomes everyone; we all have value, and everyone deserves for their story to be heard.

I love providing practical strategies and techniques to help people live more balanced lives. Through the upcoming podcast entitled, “Your Remarkable Story,” I hope to make mental health topics accessible to the general population by discussing mental well-being, relationships, strengthening connections, resilience, coping mechanisms, positive changes and other related topics.

Drawing upon 32 years of clinical practice using empirically-based approaches that help people grow, I cannot wait to be invited into your story so that I can help you rewrite your narrative for a healthier and happier future. All are welcome here, and I want every client to leave my office confident in their personal strengths. Allow me to step into your story and give you the tools needed to build a more resilient future. I am currently not taking new clients.
