About

​I have been a licensed clinical social worker for more than 25 years and have spent much of my career in private practice. My professional background includes extensive experience working with individuals and families across the lifespan, which has given me a broad understanding of the ways our relationships, family experiences, and life circumstances shape who we are and how we navigate the world.

Today, my practice is focused predominantly on adults and older adults. I work with people experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, relationship difficulties, and the many challenges and transitions that can arise throughout adulthood. Sometimes those challenges are connected to relationships, family roles, careers, caregiving, loss, aging, or other significant life changes. Other times, people simply reach a point where life feels harder, less fulfilling, or more overwhelming than they would like it to be.

I also enjoy working with couples who are struggling with communication, recurring conflict, disconnection, or significant changes in their relationship. I help couples better understand the patterns they have developed, communicate more effectively, strengthen their connection, and find healthier ways to navigate difficult conversations and decisions together.

My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, strengths-based, and practical. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and other evidence-based approaches, while recognizing that no two people—and no two situations—are exactly alike. I believe therapy should be a place where you can be completely honest, feel understood, gain perspective, and work toward meaningful change without feeling judged.

And while the work we do together can certainly involve serious and difficult things, I also believe there is plenty of room for humor. Laughter can be a wonderful way to connect, gain perspective, and make even some of life's heavier moments feel a little more manageable. Therapy does not have to feel clinical or overly formal to be meaningful. I want the people I work with to feel comfortable being themselves, and I bring that same sense of authenticity to our work together.

Whether you are facing a specific difficulty, navigating a major life transition, struggling in a relationship, or simply feeling overwhelmed or stuck, therapy can provide an opportunity to step outside of the day-to-day demands of life and focus on what you need. My role is not to tell you how to live your life, but to help you better understand where you are, clarify where you would like to be, and work alongside you as you find your way forward.After all these years, I continue to feel genuinely honored when someone chooses to share their story with me and allows me to walk alongside them during an important or difficult
