Welcome to my website! Thanks for your interest in my practice.
On this page, I'll reveal a bit about who I am and why I do what I do.
I'm a spouse, mother, step-mother, sister, daughter, aunt, and teacher who is now also an experienced psychotherapist and family therapist. At age 40, after teaching English at the high school and college levels, I returned to school to learn what experts had discovered and recorded about how we humans operate and thrive. We are such fascinating beings!
And we are each marvelously unique.
I am honored to work with couples and with adult individuals, to learn the intricacies of a family system and of an individual's inner system, and then to help understand or refine its functioning. I'm a seasoned clinician who's highly trained (more about specific trainings for both couples and individuals in the following pages), experienced, and I'm told that I'm easy to talk to, easy to trust.
