About My Clients

I work with individuals, couples, families, as well as other related systems. I have worked with a diverse range of clients across age, gender, sexual orientation, spirituality, culture, ability, and socioeconomic status. I have extensive experience working with individuals, and families in crisis. I collaborate with individuals, couples, and families, to change old, destructive patterns into mutually beneficial ways of relating.

My Background and Approach

With presence and curiosity, I offer a healing relationship as the path toward greater self-acceptance, fulfillment & freedom. I help you ground in your innate capacity to feel more in charge of your life, which includes being able to identify and express your feelings, needs, and desires. I aim to provide a comfortable and supportive atmosphere where clients can openly confront issues, learn to better manage emotions, and engage in working toward their unique goals.
