Life can be challenging, and sometimes we can feel inadequate in dealing with life struggles that come our way. Sometimes we feel like we've tried everything, but for some reason we still feel stuck despite our best efforts. Although there are times in our lives when we feel great, there are also times in our lives when we feel hopeless, anxious, depressed, or even lost. Sometimes, we can pinpoint why we feel this way, and other times, these feelings seem to just come upon us for no apparent reason. Both can make life incredibly difficult.

What if YOU are not the problem? You've been told—or felt—that you're "too much" (too needy, too picky, too loud, too sensitive, etc.), or that you're "not reaching your potential." You feel stuck– watching yourself repeat patterns &/or struggling against yourself and the world; the life you long for seeming out of reach. Maybe you're unclear what you want, how you feel, or even who you are. Maybe you know, but can't seem to live it; you're trying to figure out how to actually be yourself in this world. Perhaps you've wondered if you have chronic depression, anxiety, ADHD or autism; or maybe you just know you need some help.

For over 30 years I have been helping my clients to discover new ways to deal with their problems and to begin thriving rather than merely surviving in their lives. My greatest strength is moving people from crisis to change. My openness and forthright style with clients provide them the opportunity for understanding, personal growth, and change. I view therapy as an educational as well as therapeutic experience. My style is primarily interactive. I am supportive, caring and process oriented. I have extensive experience with mental health, hospitals and schools. I love working with people in all stages and ages of their lives!

“You get in life what you have the courage to ask for.” My clinical experience includes working with adults, children, adolescents or families who are struggling with challenging behaviors, toxic relationships and/or complex emotions.

By working together, we can unlock your courage to ask. Everything you need to heal is inside of you!
