My work is guided by the belief that all individuals and families have underlying

                         strengths  to draw from, regardless of the circumstances they face. My focus is on

                   helping individuals and families identify those strengths and build from them. In building

            from their strengths, children,  adolescents, adults, and their families are able to grow and flourish, opening the door to a full range of opportunities throughout all stages of their lives.
