Welcome

Personal concerns and challenging relationships are common problems that we all can face at some point. I work to be respectful and compassionate.

I specialize in providing couples counseling, marriage counseling, relationship counseling, as well as counseling with individuals and families.

I have particular specializations in working with premarital couples and newly married couples. I also work with couples at all stages of their relationships. For couples, I provide a more safe and constructive environment to discuss and resolve difficult topics. I help couples improve communication which leads to closeness, deepens understanding, and reduces emotional reactivity.

I work with individuals with such concerns as anxiety and stress, grief and loss, parenting and relationship issues, separation and divorce adjustment. I have particular specializations in working with women and girls of all ages with respect to self-esteem concerns and women issues.

For families, I provide a structured environment to allow all members to feel included in the treatment process. I specialize in children and adolescent issues, behavior concerns, parenting, self-esteem concerns, substance use, and disordered eating.
