I have worked with clientele with a wide range of concerns including, early childhood trauma leading to: relationship challenges, abandonment and attachment issues, as well as anxiety, depression, fear/guilt. marital issues/concerns, and issues relating to substance use.

My therapy approach focuses on building positive, strength-based relationships. I believe in creating an open, honest and direct line of communication with active listening and encouragement to share thoughts and feelings in a safe non-threatening environment.
