"Are you feeling stuck, lost, confused, or caught between contradictory feelings of hope and despair? Psychotherapy offers a reflective space to explore the sometimes vaguely understood and conflicting feelings that may inhibit us. Through therapy, a greater sense of integrity, grounding, aliveness and meaning in life is possible. Each phase of adulthood brings its own challenges. I am an intuitive, creative listener and encourage those I work with to recognize and begin to trust their own inner resources. Somewhere between deep yearning, open listening and authentic responding therapy happens--a process that can be difficult to describe and richly rewarding."

"Do you often find yourself feeling stressed, overwhelmed, or simply stuck? Are you struggling with depression, anxiety, or having difficulty in an important relationship? Have you survived a traumatic event or childhood abuse? Therapy can help resolve depression and anxiety, and open the door to personal growth, improved relationships, and healing from past trauma or abuse. Through our work together, I will assist you to identify and overcome whatever is causing you to feel stressed or stuck. I will strive to maintain a safe and non-judgmental environment in which we can explore those issues that are most important to you."

With life's challenges and demands, it is easy to get tired, drained, overwhelmed and worried. Therapy is a space where you can break away from that and heal. It's a space where you can be free of judgment and criticism and just be who you are. It's a space where you can have good days and bad days and both are not only accepted, but embraced. You can let go and, in that space, eventually a transformation can happen."
