About My Clients

I work with couples and individuals and all of my clients share something in common; they are ready for change. They are tired of the same patterns. Whether it's playing small, repeating dysfunctional relationship dynamics, or trying to reinvent themselves after divorce or loss, they are ready for a new take on life. My clients appreciate my warm but direct approach. I'm not one to just listen and nod but I will gently challenge you to face patterns that are no longer working for you.

My Background and Approach

I have extensive training working with individuals challenged with a difficult childhood that often results in CPTSD and anxiety/depression. I have found EMDR to be a wonderful tool to overcome all types of issues. Additionally, I frequently work with couples using EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples) and have experience with betrayal trauma, infidelity and sex addiction. I particularly enjoy working with women post-divorce who are rediscovering and reinventing themselves. It is truly rewarding to help other women step into their power.
