About Maureen

I am a lesbian identified therapist and have been in clinical practice since 1999.  I provide individual therapy for people and love helping people create the lives they want for themselves.  I truly believe that therapy is about having a solid connection between the client and the therapist.  This is where the magic of therapy happens.  I enjoy doing long term therapy and helping people move through the hard stuff that holds them back.

 

I am a mom to two wonderful teenagers and a standard poodle named Fiji who often joins me at the office.  I love to read and be outside in the warm weather.

Inclusivity

As a white woman I am aware of my incredible privilege in the world.  I am continually striving to be more aware of racism and all the other ‘isms’ in the world and to do my part to create a safe and open environment to discuss those concerns.  I want people of any types of diversity to feel free to talk with me and know that I will be present and open to those conversations.
