Introduction

Hi and welcome to my practice! I believe in the power of relationships to help us heal and grow. Building a solid, trusting connection with you is the most important task as we begin the journey of therapy together. Through a strong collaborative effort, I help you to re-discover your strengths and skills in order to resist the current difficulties in your life. I work as an ally, a coach, and an advocate for your well-being. I can help you strengthen your relationships and increase your connection with the important people in your life. I bring a wealth of life experience to my work with you. From my former careers as an artist in television & film, I bring creativity, humor, compassion, and mindfulness to problem-solving. As a parent of young adults and one who has traveled the road of a single parent, I understand the unique challenges young people have today. I listen. My approach is engaged, deeply empathic, with a healthy dose of humor. I see myself as a collaborator with you in bringing more compassion, self-awareness, and acceptance, and ultimately deeper connections with yourself and the ones you love.
