My Approach to Helping

For over 15 years I have been working with couples and families. My philosophy uses a thoughtful, and caring approach. I encourage individuals to locate their own strengths, and work diligently, along side you, to address the problem areas. I am a mother of 5 with real life and practical experience. I have trained all over the country with some of the foremost leaders of child and family therapy.

I have a flexible schedule with nights and some weekend appointments: offer a sliding scale fee when appropriate, and accept many insurances.
