About My Clients

Couples therapy is my preferred niche. With that said, I have much experience with executives in significant stress situations including individuals across most issues.

My Background and Approach

I began my career working within the school system and Private practice. Upon moving overseas I joined hospitals and clinics to work with walk-in plus scheduled clients. During my expatriate living and since my return to US, I've strictly conducted therapy in private practice & Telehealth. Due to my experience I have no bias therefore, I work with all individuals & Couples who are ready to make adjustments and take charge of their lives. The issues I've worked with are broad and not limited to specific diagnosis. After establishing stability within treatment, future sessions are scheduled to what I call "tune-ups" (as a maintenance tool to stay on track) or what we deem necessary.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe life in all circumstances (speed bumps, potholes or cliff hangers) can be difficult when presented during times of vulnerability (not always known by the individual, partner or family) or by surprise. What happens next is truly what defines the outcome. There is no true expert, with that said, everyone can use a little help. Therapy is a space for people to be themselves and not judged when experiencing unchartered waters. Support and discussion open up the mind and creates pathways to explore when you've exhausted all others. Therapy is not a quick fix but when processed thoroughly it can be short term.
