I am currently accepting new clients. We all face difficult times in our lives. If you find that more of your energy is going into managing life’s challenges rather than enjoying life’s beauty, that is when the support of a skilled therapist can help. Drawing on my experience as a therapist and mindfulness practitioner, I love to support people to move beyond stuck patterns and limiting beliefs, to live richer lives of meaning, joy and purpose. If you feel there is meant to be more to your life, if you are ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery and greater freedom, I am here to help.
I am a therapist, educator and consultant with over 37 years of clinical experience with people of all ages. Areas I have expertise in include depression and anxiety, childhood and adult trauma and PTSD, grief and loss, self-esteem, life transitions, spiritual growth, and substance misuse and addictions. I provide services in-person, via phone and online.
When we work together I guarantee I will be fully present and committed to supporting your growth. I promise to provide honest, direct, professional and non-judgmental focus and support. My practice is client-centered and strength-based, integrating a variety therapeutic approaches to help you meet your goals.
