My passion is supporting each client's personal
journey of growth and life management.  This
requires, and I offer, respect for each person's
culture, beliefs, and life experiences.  It is my
strong belief that each person is the authority on
his or her own life and can find solutions and reach
personal goals when skillfully supported.


I blend techniques from narrative,
solution focused, cognitive-behavioral, and other
types of therapy, choosing an approach that most
effectively supports each client's journey.
For therapy to be effective, you need to be comfortable
with your therapist. So let me introduce myself . . .
