THERAPIST
I am a highly experienced psychotherapist with over 20 years of expertise in helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and heal from trauma. Specializing in Gestalt Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy, I am dedicated to fostering compassion, self-awareness, and personal growth in my clients. I am deeply committed to supporting individuals in reducing stress, overcoming addictions, and alleviating symptoms of anxiety, depression, grief, and loss.
In addition to my individual practice, I lead Gestalt Therapy groups, creating safe and transformative spaces for clients to explore their emotions and relationships. My therapeutic approach is informed not only by my extensive training, but also by my experiences traveling to over 46 countries where I have gained a profound appreciation for cultural diversity and the universal human journey of healing and connection.
My compassionate, integrative approach empowers my clients to embrace their authentic selves and cultivate meaningful, lasting change.

COUPLES, MARRIAGE & FAMILY COUNSELING
Healthy relationships inspire us to be a better person.
Our therapists adopt a relationally focused approach when working with couples (whether married or not) and families. They maintain a neutral stance, striving to ensure that no individual feels judged or blamed. Instead, they utilize their clinical skills and professional experience to explore and understand the dynamics of the relationships involved.
Using this approach, our therapists aim to enhance mutual understanding, communication, and conflict management in a way that is tailored to each family’s specific needs. The goal is to collaborate with you and your partner, spouse, or family to foster reconciliation and create meaningful, sustainable change that helps protect your relationships from further tension and suffering.
Feel assured to know that our therapists are not only compassionate, ethical, and caring, but competent to address concerns using interventions that are s sensitive to the realities of both childhood and adolescent development.
Please note that while virtual care is available at our practice, it is recommended that couples and families meet with a therapist in-person for the initial session. This allows you to discuss the most effective setting (virtual or in-office) for ongoing sessions, ensuring that the needs of all parties are appropriately met.
