About Me
I’m a perpetual student.
My absolute best teachers are my children, my amazing husband, my parents, and every single one of my clients.
I remember the day I saw my very first client in January of 1988. She was a little first-grader with wild curly hair and more energy than I had ever witnessed in a single human being before. Her parents were getting divorced, so she came to draw pictures with me (the school social work intern) during her lunch break.
I don’t even remember her name, but she taught me that imposter syndrome was crazy and that I had a lot to learn!
My life has been a journey of finding more brilliant teachers every day, humbly learning how to be a better human being, one conversation at a time. I have been fortunate to have the privilege of working with famous psychologists like John and Julie Gottman () and thousands upon thousands of others I can never thank publicly.
I’m now a Certified Gottman Couples Therapist who co-owns a private practice with my husband. I see clients and oversee the clinical operations and every other part…
