With over 20 years of experience in private practice, I have developed a gentle and caring approach to my work with clients. I provide a safe environment in which to explore troubling issues, gain insight into life patterns and improve self- esteem and confidence.  I am skilled in early evaluation and assessment of your needs and working together we can determine the best therapeutic course to meet your goals.  I have worked extensively with children, adolescents, couples and families, and have taught courses in Marriage and Family Therapy to graduate level students and supervised interns in clinic and private practice settings.
