Please feel free to contact me if you would like more information. I look forward to hearing from you.

The therapeutic relationship is the starting point for the change process to begin. I provide an effective balance of encouragement, compassion, safety, and empowerment to assist clients in achieving their therapeutic goals. I am keenly aware of the present-day stressors clients are facing trying to meet their family’s needs and juggling it with employers’ ever-increasing productivity requirements that is leading to burnout. Together we can work towards developing coping strategies that build resilience to manage these challenges. I work with clients who are dealing with addictions, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, etc.

I truly believe that it's through our life's difficulties that we have the opportunity to grow and make the changes necessary for a healthy mindset.

Do you find yourself being overwhelmed by emotions that leads to shutting down or feeling out of control? Is it difficult to trust and feel connected with people? Do you experience tension and/or muscle pain?

We can work to have our thoughts and emotions feel more tolerable.

When considering treatment, people discuss finding "the right fit" or "a good fit." For me, this connection is vital in establishing comfort and security between client & therapist. In the hopes of assisting you narrow your search, let me tell you about myself and my work. I enjoy working with late adolescence and adults. I've worked with diverse backgrounds and a spectrum of issues ranging from serious illness to "adjustment" difficulties. Areas of expertise are depression, anxiety, relationships, professional difficulties & general life adjustments. I practice in an easy-going, down-to-earth style leaving room for both serious discussion & humor.

Trying to have a baby can be challenging. Infertility and pregnancy loss can effect your identity, life plans, relationships, and your coping strategies. Many individuals and couples going through infertility feel helpless, sad, isolated, angry, guilty, jealous of pregnant friends and family, frustrated, and nervous about the future. It is often difficult to make decisions about treatment, especially when partners do not agree on the next step. Very often, people find it hard to think or talk about anything other than having a baby. The idea of feeling and experiencing joy may feel inconceivable.

The atmosphere of my office is warm, accepting and open. Clients in my practice receive an initial assessment which includes their needs, goals, and dreams. My clients are individuals, couples and families who are experiencing problems with life and their inter-personal relationships. They are seeking relief from these problems and hoping to achieve peace of mind. I view a counselor not as a authority figure, but, as a guide, to suggest, question and assist in their journey. My office hours are early afternoon to mid-evening.

Are you feeling really low and no matter what you do you cannot get out of this funk? Is your stress level so high you feel like you can barely function? Do you feel your thoughts are constantly racing and consuming your life? Are you repeating the same negative relationship patterns? These may be symptoms of illnesses that may require professional attention. People underestimate the intense pain that one can feel from these and other issues. I have spent my career helping people feel better again. As hopeless or helpless as you may feel therapy can help. Allow me the privilege to assist you toward much deserved relief.

My goal with each client is to cultivate a collaborative atmosphere that is conducive to change and growth. This can only occur when clients are treated as individuals who know they will receive consistent, compassionate and transparent care. This starts with developing and fostering therapeutic relationships that encourage each individual to realize (or rediscover) a path that will help them develop a greater sense of personal fulfillment. I am comfortable and confident treating clients who are experiencing difficulty adjusting to life events or transitions, as well as those who are continuing to seek understanding, perspective and guidance with long standing challenges and concerns.
