Personal Statement

My approach to psychotherapy is that of a relationships expert focused on assisting individuals, couples and families to reconnect with one another, and experience relations that are sustainable, vibrant and engaged; all the while achieving their own definition of success. I work is with individuals, families and couples who are stuck in vicious cycles that don't seem to work, while using a collaborative, evidence based, powerful and innovative style of therapy.
