"I provide psychotherapy to clients ranging from young children to older adults with a wide range of issues. At some point, in most of our lives, we experience difficulty, turmoil, and/or pain in some aspect(s) of our lives; emotionally, psychologically, in relationships, or coping. I do my best to connect with and understand the people I work with on many levels. Together we identify and explore the patterns of adaptation which are no longer effective and contribute to pain and suffering. Over the many years in this profession, I have been humbled. Real change, however defined, often takes time, attention and care."

"We can seek therapy for many reasons. Therapy can help us move through feelings of grief, anger, confusion, loneliness, fear, worry, self criticism, or feeling disconnected, lost, or stuck. Therapy can also be sought from a place of curiosity, a longing to know ourselves better, to feel a stronger connection to ourselves and others, or to feel more ease, joy, confidence, sturdiness, or equanimity. In an often outwardly focused world, I see therapy as a place of refuge to explore these matters and a practice of internal reflection."

"Do you feel like life is always overwhelming? Are you using drugs, alcohol, and food to cope? Do you feel alone?
Our culture today pushes for faster, better, stronger which can be painful. Eating disorders, addictions, and co-dependency, in addition to depression and anxiety, often emerge as a way to cope when in reality, it cuts us off from experiencing freedom, joy and ease.
I work with teenagers and adults who have found that their "old ways" are more causing more suffering than comfort and they are ready to open to something new."
