Couples therapy with me is warm, direct, and sprinkled with laughter. I firmly believe in following my clients' lead. If you are ready to hit the ground running and make changes quickly, we can move fast. If you need us to step back, slow down, and be patient as we untangle the more challenging things, we will do exactly that. Whatever pace you need, I am here for both of you.
