I’ll meet you where you are.

Some sessions we’ll roll up our sleeves and get to work. We might figure out why the same problem keeps happening, learn a new skill, work through something that’s bothering you, look for patterns, or uncover a hard truth.

Other times we’ll slow down, sit quietly with difficult emotions, or create space to process something that’s been weighing on you.

We’re a team. You don’t have to come in with a plan and you don’t have to figure this out alone.

*Most sessions include at least a little laughter!

Literally and figuratively

Over the years, clients have commented that I am often leaning forward when we're talking. There's no coffee table between us in my office because I've never liked the idea of sitting back and observing quietly from a distance. I’ve found that a more engaged, collaborate approach creates the best environment for honest conversations, tough decisions, and meaningful change.

Still Curious After 25 Years

After more than 25 years as a therapist, I still love this work. I continue to learn, expand my skills, and grow as a clinician because people are complex and no two situations are exactly alike. I approach each person and every couple with curiosity rather than assumptions.

This work genuinely matters to me. I care deeply about the people who sit across from me each week. I quietly celebrate their progress, sit with them through discouraging seasons, and stay present when life feels heavy or overwhelming.

When You Work With Me

Clients often tell me they appreciate that I’m both warm and friendly but also straightforward and honest.

I’m comfortable having difficult conversations and naming what’s showing up in the room. That kind of honesty works best when you know the person sitting across from you genuinely has your best interests at heart.

Sometimes we need to slow things down. Other times we need to pivot or get back on track. I value authenticity, focus, and making good use of our time.
