About

Education and Training

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with a BA from Wellesley College and an MA in clinical psychology from Antioch University, Los Angeles. I also have an MFA in fine art.

My expertise is in helping couples process and work through difficult moments, experiences, and emotions; change habitual, negative cycles; strengthen their relationship; and grow their trust and bond. I work with the full range of struggles couples face, embrace a non-pathologizing approach and welcome people from all communities.
