Guiding Your Path to Well-being: A Collaborative Approach to Psychotherapy and Assessment


With over two decades of dedicated experience, I provide comprehensive psychotherapy and assessment services to individuals navigating a diverse range of challenges and concerns. My clinical philosophy is rooted in the belief that meaningful change unfolds through small, achievable steps. I am committed to being an active and supportive guide throughout your journey of personal growth and transformation.

My approach is inherently active and goal-oriented, and tailored to the unique needs of each individual or couple I have the privilege to work with. I strive to create a collaborative environment where your specific circumstances and aspirations are at the forefront of our work together.
