My Approach to Helping
I am especially passionate about working with couples. Most couples come to therapy because they feel stuck, aren’t seeing eye to eye, and want to connect better. I enjoy empowering couples and giving them the tools they need to improve their communication and connection. I also love working with children and adolescents, and am excited for this opportunity to take on more young clients. I love to give them the space to be the expert in the room and learn how to more effectively express their needs.
I have always been one to run towards the fire, and a lot of my training has prepared me to handle a crisis. From fighting fires on ships, to managing a team in a disaster, to helping a couple overcome their marital conflicts. Years as a sea captain have helped me discover ways to connect with all kinds of people, hear their stories and find ways to get unstuck.
