It's all about Healthy Relationships. Forgive yourself and others and learn to accept that where you are is where you need to be. I can help you identify and meet your deepest needs while transforming your relationship with yourself and others. My goal is to have my clients become successfully independent with life-long tools for success. Through therapy, you can learn to discover your core SELF, find peace and balance and be ready to work and commit to action.

Welcome! Therapy can be a safe place to explore your fears and worries, and also a place where you can learn new coping strategies, while finding hope and healing. Many of us have wounds from the past and often, new traumas can trigger those wounds to re-emerge. However, living the life you deserve is possible. I believe in the power of the human spirit and that it moves us towards healing. In therapy, you can find your way back to our path or create a new one. I see clients only via teletherapy.

My client's goals are to better understand his/her behaviors, thoughts, and emotions so that he/she is empowered to action, rather than reaction, in the face of life's challenges. He/she is eager to know him or herself better, to embrace the journey of self-awareness, thus leading to more freedom and grace, versus control, in interpersonal relationships. Most of all, my client wants to be truer to his or her genuine self: a better version of his/her genuine self, not a changed version. This will involve more acceptance and love of self and others.

Accepting new clients starting Sept 1, 2023. I am offering in person "walking sessions" to female clients after an initial virtual screening. In general, I practice a depth approach to Adult Psychotherapy integrated with techniques to manage patient symptoms and help people get their life back to 'normal' functioning. Patients struggling with anxiety, depression, pain, substance abuse (but not severe addiction), relationship conflicts, work related problems, 'transition to adult roles/functions' conflicts, and other mental and behavioral problems have benefitted from treatment with me.

Change is an inevitable part of life. The lack of change or too much change can overwhelm us and derail our growth. No one escapes hardship and stress. During these times we need the trust, respect, and empathy of an impartial professional especially when family and friends are just too close to the matter. With more than 20 years of clinical practice, I've found that the healthier person reaches out for help beyond their immediate sphere. I see myself as a guide facilitating my patients' healthy risk taking and helping them manifest their visions for a better future.

Therapy can benefit quite a few people, many of whom don’t need to have a mental disorder to reap the benefits. Some people it can benefit include: People with Low Self- Esteem. Being confident can land you the relationship of your dreams, get you that promotion you always wanted and makes you feel good. The problem is that some people don’t have enough self-esteem. Sometimes we are not happy with our appearance, or an event in the past killed our confidence, such as rejection or childhood trauma. Either way, with therapy, you can develop your self-esteem.

My style of therapy does not consist of "fixing," but rather creating a safe space in a non-judgmental environment for you to explore whatever is holding you back from expanding. I am compassionate, upbeat, engaging, and love to use humor in our sessions together when appropriate. I work from a holistic perspective and have a collaborative approach, as I believe that you are the expert of your life. Our relationship is the most important part of our work together, and I put a lot of energy into it. While I am trained in many different modalities, I will individualize each experience to meet whatever goals you wish to achieve.

My private practice is focused on individuals and their families impacted by issues related to unique academic, social, emotional, and behavioral challenges. Most of my clients are children, teenagers, and adults. My clients commonly struggle to obtain maximum performance and may need a boost of motivation to make it to the finish line. I believe in a team approach and collaborate with other professionals and family members to participate when appropriate.

It is my desire to create a space for clients to feel safe and heard within the counseling room. I believe that deep healing and change occur through a genuine and honest relationship with a caring counselor. You are warmly welcomed here.
