About

Clients who have asked me to work with them in therapy have entrusted me with a great responsibility. They have invited me to join them as a part of their team.

Because our working relationship is based on trust, I like to be open about my background and my approach. I want to make sure people have the information they need to make sure they find the right fit. Otherwise, the therapy just won’t work.

You’re welcome to contact me if you have a question…any question. And if it is something that falls outside my area of expertise, I’ll do my best to connect you with a counselor who has years of experience in that area. (I spend time getting to know about other therapists in the San Luis Obispo area so I can be a resource.)
