I am an LMFT with over thirty years of experience. I understand that learned behavior results in patterns that can either be positive and life-affirming or maladaptive and negatively impact our self-esteem, happiness, and relationships. I help clients unravel where destructive life patterns come from and empower them to have a more fulfilling life.
