Valerie is a truly a remarkable therapist. My husband and I were devastated when our old therapist retired and were very hesitant about seeing someone else. We have been seeing her for about 6 months now and I am SO beyond thankful she was recommended to us. Her calm, thoughtful presence puts us both at ease and makes it easy to talk to her about anything. We find ourselves sharing things with her that we can barely admit to ourselves, and she handles it all in a way that makes us feel truly understood. As we continue to work on our marriage, she gives us amazing tools to help build a successful partnership while also dealing with our crazy family dynamics. I am so glad we found her and I would give her more stars if I could.
I have really enjoyed working with Valerie. I am struck by her genuine warmth in conjunction with her strong presence. This combination allows me to feel a sense of safety and overtime has built a deep trust in her care. I perceive her as both wise and intelligent. Her mindfulness skills and insights have had an impressionable impact on me. I would highly recommend her to any of my friends and family.
I highly recommend Valerie. I have collaborated with her and I know firsthand the good work she does. I have no hesitation referring clients to Valerie and they speak very highly of her. She does great work.

Valerie brings a strong sense of integrity, warmth, and deep understanding to her work. Ive collaborated with her and send many clients her way, as I have complete trust in her level of skill, her ability to deeply connect, and her capacity for helping to hold whatever shows up in the room with extensive experience and deep care for her clients.
Said she couldnt help us, after making us fill out a 50 question questionnaire. She mentioned our problems were out of her expertise that she is just a generalist.
Valerie is a skilled and dedicated therapist with a genuine passion for helping people. As an MFTI, I would refer people to her with zero hesitation - I know that with Valerie, they will be in the best possible hands. Perfect balance of compassion and professionalism.
A kind, genuine therapist with reputable training grounded in body-centered techniques such as EMDR and Hakomi. The therapy that Valerie is grounded in is heart-centered and truly meaningful.
