Accepting new clients as of 6/5/24...Are you looking for a therapist who hears what you’re saying, sees, and feels your issues? Many of us are looking for a therapist who is the right fit, understands the issues we’re bringing up, and can help us work through our challenges to feel better about ourselves. Mental health issues can be difficult to manage alone and having a supportive therapist can make all the difference.

Contemporary life causes emotional/ mental conflict and stress. As your therapist, I will assist you in achieving authentic self-knowledge. "Knowledge Is Power". Through mirroring, I will reflect YOU to yourself; that knowledge can empower you in your life to resolve conflicts, mitigate anxieties/ depressive states and enhance/ maximize productive relationships. With 36 years of clinical practice especially serving the GLBT community, this work has enhanced my ability to be sensitive and insightful into the general human condition. The curative aspect of treatment is relational. I assist the client in developing a therapeutic alliance with me to promote mental and emotional health.

I view psychotherapy as a collaborative process between therapist and client. I have a varied and flexible range of therapeutic modalities which, after ascertaining what is needed, I will tailor to each client. Every person is different and therapy is not a "one size fits all" endeavor. Some clients come with a specific problem they want to deal with, and some clients come with a feeling that their life isn't moving in the right direction but they don't really know why. I work in both short term and long term models.

You are together, but worlds apart. You used to be a great couple. Now, even when you and your partner are in the same room, you're feeling neglected, unappreciated, and lonely. There's little affection between you two these days. You try to focus on all the positives in your life, but your unhappiness is becoming harder and harder to ignore. You long to feel appreciated and a priority in your partner's life. You are afraid to talk to your partner about your true feelings as conversations are often misunderstood or full of conflict. You don't know where to turn.

Asking for help is not easy. Perhaps you have tried to resolve your concerns on your own but feel now is the time for something different. I believe it's important to find a therapist with whom you feel comfortable to be yourself. Growth can take place when trust and a sense of connection develop over time.
