Nice to meet you

As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I work with individuals and couples to assess their situations and develop concrete plans to create meaningful change. This may include building new skills to manage emotions and communicate more effectively. I strive to create a respectful, safe space where you can freely express your feelings without fear of judgment and learn to navigate and regulate life’s challenges with greater confidence.
