Take the first step towards building a healthier partnership

Welcome to my practice, where I am dedicated to supporting adults and couples on their journeys toward better mental health and stronger relationships. While I specialize in working with individuals and partners, please note that I do not see young children at this time. 

While I do not accept insurance, you can conveniently use your Flexible Spending Account (FSA) or Health Savings Account (HSA) to pay for your sessions. This way, you can focus on what truly matters—your well-being—without the added hassle of traditional insurance processes. Let’s work together to create a path toward a healthier, happier you.
