Provider information

Description

I work with people who want to deepen their resilience and stay engaged in their relationships even when things are hard. My clients are diverse: 2SLGBTQIA+ folks who are coming out “late” in life, parents of young kids who are breaking the cycle, couples who want to deepen their bond, people (especially men) who struggle with managing their anger, and people navigating separation and divorce. 

I know what this stuff like; I've lived through it myself and I've found my way to thriving, and I've supported clients through it, too. 

I offer a free phone consultation to see if we are a good fit.
