What makes psychotherapy effective is the client/ therapist relationship; it is important to find someone with whom you can connect and feel at ease. I have worked with individuals, couples, groups and families for over 35 years. Clients come to me to address life issues such as personal/professional transitions, stress in relationships, health issues, grief and bereavement, anxiety and depression. I use integrative therapy, which combines traditional psychotherapy with proven alternative mind-body practices: meditation, visualization and tai chi/qigong. As a result, the mind, spirit and body all work together to promote healing, wellness and personal growth.

The relationship with the self supports all other relationships in our lives. From this understanding, my work with clients centers around exploring and strengthening the foundational relationship with the self, to include: identity formation and development, building healthy relationships with others from a place of self-worth, life stage transitions, spiritual concerns, and grief and loss. I seek to support my clients in bringing their lives into greater alignment with their personal values, so that they may feel more at home within themselves and more empowered to express themselves authentically.

Therapy is a deeply personal experience. What works for one person is not going to work for the next. For those who have tried therapy and not received the results you’ve wanted, keep trying. One therapist, treatment, or modality does not fit everyone. The fact that you are scanning through Psychology Today profiles to find the right fit for you is a small victory in itself. My goal for each client is to figure out what works for you and help create a life worth living.

With a humanistic, existential and psychodynamic approach, I offer psychotherapy to adult individuals seeking counseling for doing deep psychological work.
