Work With Us

My Theraputic Style

I offer compassion

I am no better and no worse than my clients. I believe we are all imperfect human beings and often trying our best. My role is to help you stretch and grow-even when it feels a little uncomfortable.

I’ll give guidance and gentle feedback

I’'ll give you feedback on how you can show up different, what may showing up for you in challenging moments. I can show you what to do differently so you can have a more loving and connected relationship.

I coach, model and offer direction

This may look like you doing a mindfulness exercise, practicing how to be a good communicator and how to ask for your needs without criticism and contempt.
