About Me

About Me

Becoming a therapist has been a natural progression for me. I realized early in life that I had a gift for listening to and easing the concerns of others. Expanding on my intuitive strengths, I received the proper academic training in marriage and family therapy, which now allows me to collaborate with clients in their treatment and healing.

I conduct therapy primarily using an attachment lens. Which is to say that I believe human beings function best when they feel safe, securely attached to other people and are able to completely trust in another person.

My work with clients incorporates the principles of solution focused and narrative therapy. I also find integrating mind/body techniques and art therapy enhances treatment for many of my clients.
