I feel that compassion, trust, and understanding are the foundations of therapy. In my 25 years of practice, I have found this personal approach works best to help heal emotional pain. I help people who have been experiencing problems like anxiety, panic, depression, relationship problems, co-dependence, chronic worry and more. In a safe and respectful environment, I will work to understand your personal struggle with emotional pain and help you to work toward a better life.

Throughout a lifetime, we are reminded of our own mortality by a continuous journey fraught with hurdles and complications that cause not only physical, but emotional pain as well. Often, along with that journey, we discover the desired destination is full of stressors that inhibit our strive, accomplishments, and ultimately, our very joy and sense of fulfillment.

These are unprecedented times that challenge all of us. As humans, we perceive uncertainty as a threat, which can lead to anxiety or depression in otherwise healthy individuals. In my practice, my associates and I focus on attachment and trauma as root causes of anxiety and depression. We go beyond symptom relief to help our clients understand how they came to be anxious or depressed and what to do about it.

I enjoy empowering the individuals that I work with to help them make a decision in the direction they would like to see their lives go. Through several Cognitive Behavior Techniques, we are able to discover faulty cognitive patterns that may or may not have led to automatic negative thoughts (ANTS). As we discover those faulty cognitive thinking patterns, we are able to help individuals reframe negative thought patterns to help relieve symptoms of depression, anxiety, and raise self-esteem. I am also trained in EMDR. Sometimes painful memories get locked in our brains. EMDR helps process those memories, where the brain does it all.

I offer a unique blend of longevity as a therapist as well as an integration of the latest trends in treatment. My own life experiences have included several challenging medical and family issues.
