She is adept at working with adults, couples, and families dealing with a range of issues including anxiety, depression, grief and loss, trauma, abuse, relationship dynamics, women's issues, spirituality, chronic illness, life transitions, and caregiver concerns. Her special interest in working with clergy and their families, stemming from her years as a pastor's wife, adds another dimension to her diverse skill set.
