"All happy families resemble one another, but each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way." Leo Tolstoy, Anna Karenina

Different clients bring different goals, ambitions and motivations to their therapeutic experience. I bring a warm, compassionate, non-judgmental approach to my work with clients that arises out of my deeply held conviction that the most important determinant of therapeutic success will be the therapeutic alliance between patient and client. I draw on my understanding of various therapeutic techniques and employs different therapeutic models in order to engage my clients' quest for self-discovery and problem resolution.

Relationship & Family Therapy

Our closest relationships can bring deep fulfillment—but they can also carry tension, miscommunication, and unresolved patterns. Whether you’re navigating challenges in your marriage, building trust in a blended or non-traditional family, or seeking deeper emotional and physical intimacy, therapy offers a space for honest connection, reflection, and growth. Together, we’ll work to rebuild understanding, strengthen communication, and help each individual feel heard, valued, and supported.

Pre-Marital & Committed Couples Counseling

Every lasting relationship is built on a foundation of communication, trust, and shared values. Whether you're preparing for marriage or deepening a long-term commitment, couples counseling can help you explore expectations, navigate differences, and strengthen emotional connection. Therapy provides a safe space to develop the tools needed for a resilient partnership—so you can move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and alignment in your journey together.

Individual Mental Health Therapy

Life’s demands can weigh heavily on our emotional well-being—sometimes quietly, sometimes all at once. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed by stress, struggling with anxiety or depression, or navigating the unique challenges of middle life, therapy offers a space to pause, reflect, and reset. Together, we’ll explore your experiences with compassion and intention, equipping you with tools to manage emotions, build resilience, and reconnect with a sense of purpose and stability.

Career & Life Coaching

Your career is more than just a job—it’s a key part of your identity, purpose, and daily life. Whether you're facing burnout, navigating a difficult work environment, or striving to reach the next level in your performance, coaching provides a space to clarify goals, overcome obstacles, and build confidence. Together, we’ll identify what’s holding you back and develop practical strategies to help you thrive both professionally and personally.
