Whether you’re navigating relationship challenges, a serious diagnosis, or the emotional rollercoaster of caring for someone living with dementia, I offer tailored services to you with compassionate guidance.
I’m also a published researcher—featured in The New York Times—whose study revealed how profoundly being recognized by loved ones shapes our sense of self. This passion for understanding identity and connection extends to my speaking and writing, where I translate complex research into meaningful tools for individuals, families, and communities.
Working with me, you’ll find a blend of empathy, cutting‑edge science, and practical strategies—whether you’re seeking personal healing or wanting to explore big questions about who we are and how we shape one another’s lives.
