About Me

Choosing a therapist is a meaningful step, and my goal is to create a safe, supportive space where healing and lasting change can happen. I work with individuals, couples, and families, helping clients live more fully aligned with their values through compassionate, clinically grounded care.

I specialize in addiction recovery, trauma (using Accelerated Resolution Therapy), high-conflict divorce, and couples therapy utilizing the Gottman Method Couples Therapy. I also support clients navigating anxiety, depression, and life stressors, meeting each person with empathy and respect.


My Approach

My work is informed by both personal experience with the impact of addiction and extensive clinical experience across residential treatment, schools, non-profits, and outpatient settings. These experiences allow me to bring both understanding and expertise into the therapy room.


My therapeutic approach is rooted in Family Systems Therapy with an AFCC focus, as well as Polyvagal Theory, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and the Gottman Method Couples Therapy.


I believe that improving communication and understanding family dynamics are essential to emotional healing and meaningful connection.


What You Can Expect

I strive to create a collaborative therapeutic relationship where you feel supported, understood, and empowered. My approach emphasizes clarity, emotional regulation, and practical tools that help you navigate complex relationships and life transitions with greater confidence.


Outside of the therapy room, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, golfing, snowboarding, reading, playing games, and watching sports. Maintaining balance in my own life helps me stay grounded and fully present with the clients I serve.


Moving Forward

You don’t have to face life’s challenges alone. If you’re ready to work toward deeper connection, emotional clarity, and lasting change, I’d be honored to walk alongside you on that journey.
