Hello! Welcome to my practice. I'm so glad you're here! As a therapist my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

re:therapy provides a warm, compassionate environment in which to share and move toward increased balance and potential, in a peaceful, comfortable and inviting setting, much like being in your own living room.
