Seeking help to navigate the challenges life presents is a tremendous sign of strength! My hope as a therapist is to provide a safe and supportive environment allowing clients to explore the issues and challenges they face.  I see clients for a variety of reasons including grief, depression, anxiety, and trauma as well as transition and life changes. I have experience working with children, adolescents and adults. My approach to therapy is an integration of psychodynamic techniques with cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness based interventions.

I am a trained grief counselor and have provided individual and group bereavement sessions. Joining a client on their journey to wellness as they heal from the past, learn to live in the present and find new hope for the future is my passion.

I have lived in the Middle East region since 2012 and currently reside in Amman Jordan. I am married with four adult children who all live in the US. When I am not seeing clients I enjoy reading, exploring new areas and spending time with friends in coffee shops all over Amman.
