I'm passionate about helping clients of any age or gender learn how to break unhealthy habits, reduce their anxiety and depression, and also learn about themselves in the process of therapy.

Most people find it quite difficult to begin seeing a therapist regardless of the reason. It does not seem natural to expose one's innermost struggles to a complete stranger. After working in the field for 27 years I have found that the initial discomfort felt by many dissipates rather quickly when they encounter a warm, supportive person who offers genuine hope.

Choosing a psychotherapist is a very personal decision that I view with respect and humility. Whether dealing with depression, anxiety, marital or relationship issues, family problems, grief, adjustment issues, or any of the social emotional reasons that you are seeking help for, I am committed to approaching our work together with a personal and collaborative approach to problem-solving. My belief is you are the expert of your life, but that when problems occur, a non-judgmental and objective perspective can help to clear the barriers away that are blocking you in a safe and trusting space.

If you are feeling confused, unmotivated, distracted, or have difficulty staying on task, this can be a sign that you are experiencing a disruption and conflict within yourself that is preventing you from achieving desired goals or enjoying your current life. While we travel this path we call life, sometimes we encounter obstacles that seem like we just can’t overcome. We all have goals in life and we desire the best things for ourselves but sometimes we don't always take the right course of action for ourselves. Our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors reflect a hidden belief system within ourselves which decides our path in life.

As women, oftentimes life demands a huge amount of our energy and mental capacity. In order to keep up, we tend to neglect ourselves or our relationships. When this happens we can begin to feel unbalanced. This constant demand can lead to overwhelming feelings of worry or sadness. We may worry about our future, the people in our lives, or things we need to get done. Additionally, at times we might feel as though we are being tested or triggered by unresolved issues or people from our past. This along with other challenges is bound to leave us feeling completely drained and out of balance.

I believe in the inherent strength we all have within us to work to overcome adversity in our lives. If you, a family member of any age, or someone you may know are struggling with depression, anxiety, family dynamic challenges, or any life stressor that is keeping you from living the authentic and happy life you deserve, I am here to give you the help and guidance needed to overcome those obstacles and challenges. Sometimes adversity is a call to action to make changes in our lives we are all capable of doing with commitment and effort. The choice to ask for help is a choice made in strength, and I am here to support your journey!

Are you feeling down, anxious, depressed or irritable? Life can be challenging, stressful and overwhelming. Exploring these challenges with an experienced and empathetic psychotherapist has the potential to facilitate growth, change and healing to gain a greater understanding of self and others. I am passionate about helping individuals who experience such problems as anxiety/fears; depression, mood disorders stress, trauma; low self-esteem, poor impulse/anger control; dissatisfaction with job/relationships; work/family issues; marital/parenting issues; bereavement; addiction, sexual identity issues, etc.
