About

Initially, I attended grad school in public health. While studying at Yale, in the 1970's I took a course entitled, "The Newly Emerging Field of Family Therapy." The professors were amazing and captured my attention. Thirty-one years later, I enrolled in the Couple and Family Therapy Program at Thomas Jefferson University. I am passionate about what I do and have been described as caring and compassionate. I try to listen and connect with each client's specific experience. As a life-long learner, I try to share the latest articles and books to help clients. I've grown from many varied lived experiences and educational opportunities, which positions me in a unique place as a couples and family therapist. I have advanced training in Emotionally-focused therapy, the Gottman Method, and Encountered-Centered Therapy.
