My Approach to Helping
As a certified Imago Relationship Therapist, I am passionate about helping couples lessen reactivity and reconnect or connect more deeply. I have expertise in working with couples dealing with poor communication, affairs, lack of physical intimacy, emotional disconnection and blended and step family issues. I am a Mom myself to two littles ones, so I understand the challenges families face and how the journey can be difficult to navigate at times but so joyful if we look, listen, and develop the right skills!

My approach is empathic and warm, as well as focused on dynamic changes. My work as a therapist is to help you have the best quality of life possible right now and move toward your ideal life. In addition to couples and families, my clients are also individuals and groups seeking growth through life transitions, particularly grief/loss, divorce, remarriage and childbirth. I also approach therapy from a mind/body perspective, utilizing mindfulness skills.

What I Love about Being a Psychotherapist

What I love about being a therapist is witnessing growth and change within the individual, a couple, or the family system. This restores my belief that transformation is inherent in our experience as humans and potential is boundless despite our sometimes chaotic experience of life and living.
