Individual, Couples & Families
I work with individuals, couples and families to focus on their strengths, and to utilize those strengths to help heal the patterns that have caused dysfunction in their lives, and in their relationships. I offer a safe, empathic environment, and the skills obtained through education and training, to facilitate this change. I treat each individual with unconditional positive regard, and honor the uniqueness of each individual. My goal is to assist my clients to discover authenticity, peace and fulfillment in their lives, and true intimacy in their relationships.
Therapy sessions are 50 minutes long.
