I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 25 years of experience in the treatment of individuals, children, adolescents, and families. I maintain a private practice where I conduct individual sessions both in-person and telehealth, small group sessions, in-home assessments, and community-based interventions. A unique perspective is that I work with my clients in their homes, schools, or other locations. MFT License # 49727.

I believe that each person and age group has different needs within a therapy setting. I choose to work with individuals and families in their own environments and encourage interactive talk therapy to create a safe, compassionate and dynamic approach to support systemic change. Areas of particular focus and expertise are infant and child mental health with children 0-5, school-age children, adolescents, and parent coaching.

When working with children and adolescents, I believe that the most important person in a child's life is the parent or caregiver. I see the partnership that is formed between the therapist and parent/caregiver as an integral part of work.

I have provided numerous training workshops for clinicians, teachers, and parents. I have presented on topics such as positive parenting, attachment, and bonding, effects of trauma on young children, development, assessing the parent-child relationship, and improving communication techniques within a family.
