We all face challenges that can sometimes seem overwhelming. Are you negotiating life changes? Are you trying to reduce depression, anxiety, stress, or loneliness? Are you in a relationship that you wish was bringing you both more joy? I will partner with you in a safe supportive environment to help you overcome these challenges and realize your goals. My approach is highly personalized. I will collaborate with you to build upon your strengths and avoid the negative behavior patterns that hold you back. You are a unique person, with unique needs, and I fully respect that. When it comes to therapy, one size does NOT fit all.
I assist individuals and couples experiencing a variety of issues: from helping them adjust to changes in their life and environment, to helping overcome depression, anxiety, interpersonal difficulties, stress, and more. I counsel couples to help them build stronger, more rewarding relationships, with better, more effective communication.
With over 25 years experience providing individual and couples psychotherapy, I create a safe, non-judgmental space in which to listen to you, support you, and coach you, with honest, but gentle feedback. I customize my treatment approach to fit your needs using tools from various therapeutic orientations to help you reach your goals.
