Everyone has a struggle or a suffering of some kind or an area of our life we can improve upon. My specialty is working with middle aged and older adults who are navigating grief and loss, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and life transitions. Let's work together to help you to move your life in a positive direction and achieve emotional wellbeing!

I bring 40+ years of clinical experience to the table in helping you to improve your emotional wellbeing. In addition to a private practice and nearly 18 years as a hospice social worker, I've taught college courses on gerontology and edited and published a book.

If you're looking for a positive, compassionate, and experienced therapist to help you with emotional issues or life transitions, give me a call. Therapy sessions are held by video and by phone from the convenience of your home.

I believe that the best style of therapy is the one that helps you achieve positive change in your life. My style is eclectic and draws from several different types of treatment. Most of our work is done in-session, but I will also give you things to work on in your own time when it would be beneficial for you.
