I see people as having rich, complex human emotions that are not well described with overly simple and often stigmatizing diagnostic labels like depression or generalized anxiety. Each person is entirely unique, with their own history, strengths, and challenges. In therapy, I will work with you to better understand yourself. When we can understand why you might be feeling or thinking or acting in a way that is not best for you, we can work together to change it in a way that is tailored to your needs and your circumstances.

Are you struggling? Feeling overwhelmed? Stuck? Have you noticed patterns in your life you want to change? Feeling defeated by obstacles to your goals? Are you worried about how you are feeling inside? Is something in your life affecting your ability to be happy or successful or in a relationship? Are you facing an issue you don't know how to resolve? Has someone you care about suggested you talk to a professional? You are not alone. Speaking to an experienced therapist can help you find the path from where you are to where you want to be.

What matters to you? Being curious makes a significant difference when you are thinking of making changes because now you are interested in yourself - in what you think and feel and want- and want to become. Are relationships your core concern? - wondering what is working and what is not, what is missing, and what is disappointing?Losses or fear of loss makes us anxious, ashamed, often traumatized by our own feelings. I am committed to working with your personal needs in a trusting, creative, dynamic, caring process and will help you achieve what you desire. Real changes take real time.

We all get stuck at some point in our lives. Sometimes we compensate by reverting to older, familiar patterns of coping, that may have been effective in the past, but don't quite address the complexity of the problems you face today.

I have been a therapist for over 40 years and love the work I'm doing. I enjoy working with individuals and couples dealing with personal, marital/relationship and parenting issues. I help clients resolve their anger and communication issues, leading to healthier and more intimate relationships. I have also have had training in hypnotherapy and EMDR. My therapy is in-depth, dealing with the emotional connections between childhood and adulthood patterns that keep us from enjoying life to the fullest. Through understand and breaking through the barriers that confine us comes the deep healing and the path to a more fulfilling life.

If you are reading this now, you may be struggling with feelings or experiences that have become hard to bear and even understand. You may feel alone and as though no one seems to really get what you are going through. It may be some immediate situation or transition in life that feels extra hard to navigate, or some long-standing grief or pattern in relationships that seems to have a hold on you. You may have symptoms such as anxiety or depression, perhaps with less than optimal means of coping. Psychotherapy can help you understand and change.

Via online video sessions at Alchemydoor.com, I invite you to a therapy of self -compassion. Transformation can be disorienting. I offer a nonjudgmental, spacious relationship that can weather the natural ebbs and flows of the seasons of your life, so that when you define your compass and head out on that wide sea, you are not alone. Clarifying your own unique personal path, you gain self-knowledge, and can increase understanding of how to sustain energy to persevere on said path. This knowledge and acceptance naturally manifests life outcomes that are optimal for who you are becoming... Outcomes that are unknown to you presently.

Thank you for your interest. I am not able to accept new patients at this time. Your decision to pursue psychotherapy may be a clear-cut choice or one reached after much thought.

The type of therapy that I specialize in would likely be a good match for you if you're interested in integrating practices like meditation, mindfulness, self-compassion, and loving-kindness with contemporary psychotherapy to address current issues in your life. In the past I have successfully worked with individuals struggling with anxiety disorders, depression, trauma, anger, addiction, chronic pain, marital and other relational issues including LGBT relationships. My specialty is working with anxiety and stress related disorders.

Emotions can sometimes be difficult to bear-sadness, worries about yourself and others, fears, painful recurrent interactions and relationships. Working with an understanding professional to explore feelings and expectations about yourself and your relationships can be the key to clarifying troubling emotional states. These feelings can cause recurrent painful states, or push us toward repetitive or self-destructive behaviors. Exploring these feelings in a safe relationship can cause feelings about yourself and others to shift, opening to new ways of thinking and behaving. This allows for greater flexibility, enhanced creativity, a better relationship with yourself, and better connections and relationships.
