Individual Therapy

The purpose of therapy is to improve the quality of life. For some, that means addressing mood or anxiety disorders that impact quality of life. For others, therapy means unpacking trauma. Sometimes therapy involves just getting support and assistance to maneuver through a difficult period or a circumstance. 

My goal is to provide the help you need to address barriers to the quality of your life with warmth, compassion and wisdom.​

Couples Therapy

Our long-term committed relationships are enormously important to us.  Unfortunately, our culture has done little to prepare us for the reality of building healthy relationships.  We have come to expect a great deal of love, but know little of what love requires.  I work with couples to understand how the challenges they face are invitations to build a deeper, more resilient and vibrant relationship.
