I have helped people with a broad range of concerns and difficulties, including excessive anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma, chronic pain management, relationship difficulties and serious mental health problems. I am especially skilled in helping individuals with addictions, including family members of individuals with addictions.

Additionally I have completed advanced level training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy .
