About this provider

Clients I Work With

I work with individuals, children, and families who are navigating trauma, relational challenges, and emotional pain. I support clients who want to reduce distress, work through difficult experiences, strengthen their relationships, and build greater resilience.

Approach

My approach is strength-based, collaborative, and individualized. I work alongside each client to understand their unique needs and create a treatment plan that supports healing, reduces emotional distress, and builds resilience. With 25 years of combined experience as a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and Marriage and Family Therapist, I strive to create a supportive environment where clients can work toward meaningful and lasting change.
