Barbara specializes in couples therapy – she is passionate about helping individuals and couples better understand themselves, strengthen their relationships, navigate life’s challenges, and find direction when they feel stuck, disconnected, overwhelmed, or frustrated. Whether you’re working through relationship difficulties, communication challenges, boundaries, anxiety, perfectionism, resentment, or major life transitions, her goal is to help you better understand what’s happening beneath the surface and develop practical strategies rooted in your values for meaningful lasting change.

Her approach is compassionate, collaborative, non-judgmental and down-to-earth, while also being thorough, honest and direct when constructive feedback is needed. She is a very eclectic practitioner who draws from a variety of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Gottman, EFT, CBT, DBT, ACT, BSFT, Somatic, etc. to tailor approaches to your unique needs and goals.

Barbara is a Master of Social Work (MSW) Psychotherapist with over 20 years of experience in the mental health field, including 15+ years providing individual psychotherapy, 10+ years specializing in couples and marital therapy, and the facilitation of over 500 therapeutic workshops and groups.

She believes therapy should be a safe space where you can be yourself, feel understood, explore difficult conversations, and gain a clearer understanding of what matters most to you. Her aim is to help you strengthen your interpersonal skills, build healthier more connected relationships, and connect with your internal compass so you can move forward with greater clarity, resonance, and resilience – because therapy isn’t about telling you which direction to go, it’s about helping you gain the confidence, tools, and strategies to navigate your own way.
