I am looking clients who are interested in ongoing personal growth to help with their relationships, deepen their connections with others and find meaning in their lives. It could be through work, family, leisure, any venue. I am also quite skilled in helping those who have had trauma in their early lives, due to dysfunctional families, addiction, or abuse. I listen to what people want and I have 20 years of helping people find it. I work collaberatively, with compassion, tolerance without judgment and in a practical manner. Due to my life experience, work experience, and my own personal growth I am able to help you grow.
I have 45 years of experience with clients to help with relationships to others and to yourself. I'm interested in you, if you are interested in your inner life and want to explore it, be listened to, get feedback, improve and deepen your relationships, and possibly change some behaviors, find more inner calm. I work with athletes and understand fitness.
Are you struggling with a relationship? Feel anxious about the future or daily activities? Want to get more clarity into your behaviors? Thinking about a change in work life or moving? I listen well, can help you identify feelings and see things in a different light. Maybe I can help you get out of a stuck pattern. Let's see if we may be a good match.

I was trained in a wide range of therapeutic approaches, which allows me to tailor my work to the unique needs and goals of each individual. I believe therapy is a collaborative process, and together, we will choose the approach that best supports your personal growth and healing. While I draw from various therapeutic modalities, I find that relational therapy is often the most transformative.
