As a licensed professional counselor, she provides social and emotional nourishment to individuals,
couples and families struggling with relationships, life stressors, transitions, and health challenges –
in other words, all the joys and challenges of being human. She loves working with couples in
committed partnerships to ease conflict and increase connection, and specializes in issues around sex,
attachment, communication, and infidelity – a very painful, traumatic experience that one CAN heal
from. She also focuses on parents (such a tough, humbling gig!), and helps them develop healthy,
fulfilling relationships with themselves, their children and each other. She has extensive experience
in grief, loss and dealing with chronic illness, and companions people on these journeys to a place of
hope and healing.
She has a client-centered approach, which means she is committed to working with clients in a
collaborative partnership to solve problems, rewrite and expand their inner narrative, and achieve
positive change: more enjoyable relationships, more ease and joy in daily life, less stress and strife,
and an increased sense of well-being. She enjoys living in the Lake Country area with her husband
and two beloved, spoiled cats, and has two young adult children.
