Let’s connect.
Hey, I’m Barbara / Barb / AKA Your Cool Aunt.
I’m a 60+ year-old therapist, author, and artist with lived experience in the kinds of things my clients face (relationships ending, reinvention after loss, caring for children/parents, career transitions, figuring out who you are and what makes you happy) with expertise in communication, intimacy, and creativity. Therapy with me feels like a thoughtful conversation, not a medical exam. Sound good? →
