My philosophy and approach to helping clients is to do a thorough assessment and develop a treatment plan that is characteristic of that client and guide clients through therapy to healing. Each client has a uniqueness about them and my work is finding it and helping that client realize it and live in it. Perception is the key to understanding. Awareness is the key to realization.

As a seasoned clinical social worker, marriage and family therapist and with a passion for working with couples and along with a specialty in sex therapy, my 25 years of experience being with individuals, couples, and families is deeply gratifying personally and professionally. Believing that as human beings we are " hardwired to connect "and protest when we're not being heard, understood or getting our needs met, I am committed to collaboratively working to nurture and strengthen our relationship with ourselves and with others in our lives. The importance of being present, compassionate and providing a safe space is what inspires me to help those struggling with challenges, to change and heal from stress, pain, and trauma, and to repair and enhance relationship bonds.
Talking about sex and problematic sexual behaviors is often stigmatized by society, family or culture. My main goal is provide a safe place where one can openly discuss sexual concerns and we can work together to determine if they are problematic or to discuss the impact of another's sexual behaviors on you. Too often, it is assumed that therapy around sexual addiction or sexuality is about stopping one's sexual behavior. Here, we work to define your sexuality as an individual. Work may include trauma focused work in order to gain access to underlying concerns, or it may involve sex education to best claim your sexuality. Working with loved ones of sex addicts, including parents, often includes shame reduction and healthy boundary work. Whatever the work is, you are part of the treatment team and the most important part of guiding therapy.
I am a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with 10 years of nursing experience, including acute care, the emergency room, and critical care. My broad experience across healthcare settings allows me to personalize treatment and medication management for adults, adolescents, and children with anxiety, depression, psychotic challenges, and trauma-related conditions.
You may be thoughtful, capable, and deeply caring, yet in your closest relationships, something still feels off. You might notice yourself reacting more strongly than you want to, repeating the same patterns, or leaving conversations feeling misunderstood or disconnected. If you’re here, you’ve likely already spent time trying to understand it. And at some point, it begins to feel like insight alone isn’t enough. I help you slow things down and begin to make sense of what’s happening beneath those moments. Together, we look at the patterns shaping how you relate, how you respond under stress, how you protect yourself, and how those patterns show up in your relationships today. This work is not about fixing you. It’s about helping you understand your experience in a way that creates space for you to respond with more clarity, steadiness, and intention. As we work together, you’ll begin to notice: less reactivity more awareness in the moment a stronger sense of yourself and a more grounded way of connecting I provide a space that is thoughtful, steady, and nonjudgmental, where you don’t have to perform to be understood. From there, real change becomes possible.
