I love people. I enjoy helping others to become their best selves. Changing human behavior is not easy. I know from my own experience trying to stop unwanted behaviors takes work, patience, and help from others. I want clients to feel connected and that I understand their issues and “get it.” Creating emotional safety so clients can open up, share feelings that they may not have shared before, is part of the process. This way we can work as a team on the real underlying issues that drive the behavior. I enjoy marriage therapy. Working to form an alliance with each partner and flowing with the emotions in the session is not an easy dance.
