I am an experienced therapist in Santa Cruz who has the natural ability to make almost anybody feel comfortable. I have a compassionate and relaxed personal style, which can be good potential fit for therapeutic work with people of many ages and backgrounds.

I work well with couples, because I am able to see multiple points of view and I have a disarming presence, which makes me easily approachable. Finally, I offer "walk and talk therapy" (having sessions while we hike in the natural environment) for those who would like to physically move somewhere while they psychologically move somewhere.
