About My Clients

In my practice I work with adults including older adults, couples and families around issues of anxiety, depression, grief and loss and life transitions and workplace issues. I am committed to helping to find the unique work-life balance that is supportive of happiness.

My Background and Approach

You are invited to join in the journey of self-discovery and wellness. Where agency holds center stage and the utility of light bulb moments make the most challenging of life circumstances appear clearer and hopeful. The focus of the therapeutic partnership is to come out of the darker and uncertain phases that often hijack our lives and hold us hostage, and to discover the resources within that are under-utilized but hold both solutions and meaning to an illuminated path. I am a trained psychotherapist with 20-years experience. I am primarily a cognitive behaviorist but incorporate other modalities in my practice when indicated and appropriate. My therapy style is interactive where the work gets done through the relationship. I also stive to create a safe and non-judgmental space so that feelings of shame and guilt do not block our process but instead act as guides to issues unresolved
