hello there!

A little bit about me: I started out my professional life working in technology, and after more than decade of working in the business world, I realized that I needed a way to better express who I was. Inspired by my own journey in therapy, I returned to university to become a therapist myself. I have an undergraduate degree in Information Technology and Psychology and a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Fuller Seminary in Pasadena. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (#2022045023)
Being a therapist is not just a calling, it is also my passion. I am always reminded of what a privilege it is to be invited into a couple's life together, and to be present through pain, change and difficult times. I work exclusively with couples, using Emotionally Focused Therapy to help partners understand the cycle that keeps them stuck and find their way back to each other. I am highly directive in session — I won't just nod along while you talk past each other.
I only offer 2-hour mini-intensive sessions — there is no standard 50-minute session. Each mini-intensive is $180. I have a variety of appointment times available. For sessions, call me at (417) 768-9089, or email me through the site.
