For over twenty years I have been helping individuals and couples dealing with anxiety, depression, conflict, intimacy, communication, and personal growth. I work collaboratively with my clients to define problem areas and identify ways to make changes.

We want insight as to how to execute positive change.

Life can feel overwhelming at times. Some might find it difficult to find the emotional courage to seek psychotherapy when you are already dealing with a quagmire of complex competing loyalties, identities, and personal and political conflicts.

Carrying around those frustrations with nowhere to process them can further exacerbate difficulties in daily activities.
