I empower couples, adults, and youth to navigate relationship challenges, family conflict, ADHD, social and academic pressures, anxiety, depression, and LGBTQ+ issues. With kids and teens, I bring art, play, mindfulness, and coping skills into session while collaborating with parents for lasting change. For adults and couples, we will explore your patterns and early experiences to better understand your path forward today. I use approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, and Gottman Method couples therapy to boost connection and well-being.
