About My Clients

I work myself out of work. I don't see clients for their entire lifetime. I work with clients as long as they feel they need my help. I encourage my clients to become self-sufficient and not depend on me. I empower them and build their confidence to continue helping themselves long after I was in their lives.

My Background and Approach

I take a Rogerian - unconditional, positive regard, Person-Centered and Strengths-based approach to therapy. You are the expert of you, your life and experiences. I help you find the tools that work best for you. I help you get unstuck.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Life experiences shape us into who we are. My belief is that we can all use the most difficult times for good. I've experienced several life altering experiences. For example, my paternal grandmother committing suicide and finding her as a child with my parents and losing my first baby at 41 weeks gestation to stillbirth. I believe these experiences have helped me understand loss and trauma much more deeply than a text book can teach.
