I have been passionate about working with those suffering with the impact of life's challenges for over 20 years. I work with a focus on integration of body, mind and spirit to help clients to find connection to the origin of problems and effective solutions.
I specialize in cross-cultural couple therapy, multi-generational family therapy (adult children and parents), trauma informed therapy, mindfulness meditation and MBTI types feedback.
In my personal life, I am married for 20 years with a child. I volunteer in local meditation center and run regular workshops for teenagers.
