At our core, I believe we are all uniquely perfect. There may be things that get in the way of our realizing our wonderfulness and potential such as trauma, grief, crisis, old ideas, habits, negative patterns of thinking about ourselves, others or our lives. We all need support, new information or skill building at times in life. I bring fresh perspectives and serve as a positive guide and collaborator to people who wish to grow and change. Developing an authentic, trusting rapport, rich in empathy and acceptance are the foundation upon which functional, joyous, harmonious and fulfilling lives can evolve.

As human beings we can develop painful, dysfunctional habits that keep us from connecting fully to self and others. At those times an objective therapist using a variety of approaches can help reconnect with self and others in healthier, more collaborative ways. I know that strong, collaborative interpersonal relationships provide the healing force for our emotional wounds and other stressors. Target populations: couples, children and teens struggling with life situations, Gender Identity and transitions; firefighters and police officers experiencing acute and chronic stress related symptoms at work and home.

Are you exhausted and overwhelmed? Do you long for better connection with others? Are you filled with worry, regret or unresolvable grief? Do you struggle to be content and to care for yourself?

Is there something about your life that is not working? Do your struggles interfere with your ability to be happy and have satisfying relationships? Together, we can explore and discover the best way to approach your unique circumstances. I work with individuals and couples from an integrative approach in order to create a nurturing, encouraging and productive environment where we will address conflicts and patterns that are negatively affecting you. The origin of these issues often have their roots in unresolved childhood trauma and attachment deficits.

If you struggle with anxiety or depression, you know how difficult it can be to cope. When anxiety is at its worst, it feels like something awful is about to happen. Without knowing how to respond, it’s easy to get trapped in what seems like an endless pattern of worry and avoidance. Depression feels exhausting, hopeless, and sad. Motivation and activity decline, and it’s hard to believe that things will ever get better. Imagine being more active, skilled, and competent, communicating more effectively in relationships, being more productive at work or school, and feeling more satisfied with life.
