I serve clients who are in distress and need someone to be with them on their journey, whether they are ready to change or simply considering it. Ideally, clients want to find solutions to their issues that fit their lives and values, and that are sustainable in their given circumstances. My goal is to help clients find these solutions by drawing on their own inner strengths.

30 years helping clients make peace with trauma, abuse, grief, anxiety, depression, parenting distress, addiction, coming out, disease, death, and unresolved pain from relationship misfortune. Individual psychotherapy focused on at least four themes: 1. Frank talk about what has gone wrong or been missing, and acknowledgement of afflicted feelings; 2. Grief work focused on moving past trauma, deprivation, loss, disillusionment, disloyalty, and inconsolability; 3. Replacing unfortunate habits (of mind, heart or action) with ways of living that clients would now find most comfortable; 4.

Drawing on 25 years experience in counseling and psychotherapy, I work with people in an engaged, interactive manner bringing both competency and compassion to the therapeutic relationship. I offer short term therapy to address such issues as relationship conflicts, career difficulties, grief reactions, or stress. I also offer in-depth therapy to help individuals resolve more on-going problems such as chronic depression, recurrent anxiety or difficulties arising from childhood traumas or dysfunctional families. By providing psychological expertise in a confidential, safe environment we can address challenging life issues with respect and care.

Beyond knowing a therapist has degrees and a license, a list of credentials do not matter much in your choosing. Therapy is more art than science. Nor may you be impressed with a long series of my professional accomplishments. What you want to know is: Can I stop the pain? Can I make your depression and anxiety go away? Can I fix your career or relationship problem? The answer is: No, I cannot. But together we can. If you will bring the motivation and some willingness to trust I will bring knowledge and the ability to shift things. And perhaps, with the help of an unseen grace, together we can heal the hurt and find a solution.

If you are reading this profile, you are taking an important step in helping yourself think and feel better. Sure, entering into a therapeutic relationship and sharing about yourself & your situation with someone new can be uncomfortable. This is normal, as is some hesitation to engage in therapy. However, if you are ready and willing to give therapy a try, with me as your guide, improvement, insight, and better outcomes may come.

Feeling stressed out? Are you unable to relax? Wish you could stop the negative thoughts and the inner critic? Are you going to the past a lot with many “what if questions” which often creates depression or going to the future and feeling anxious? Do you suffer from a trauma or things that has happened in the past and you are not able to let go of them? These are all issues that I have helped many of my clients with.

The therapeutic relationship, ie…how you connect with your therapist, is the most essential element to the success of the therapy you are seeking. I strive to ensure that the relationship between myself and my clients consists of respect for where you are at when you begin your therapy as well a guarantee that the focus will always be on you and whatever needs you have at the moment.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with experience treating a wide variety of mood, anxiety, and trauma-related problems. I have experience working with adults 18 and older who are suffering from depression, anger, PTSD, addiction, sleep problems, anxiety, and life adjustment issues. I primarily use cognitive-behavioral treatments to help people overcome these issues. My objective is to allow you to achieve your goals whether that means improving your overall wellbeing, being more successful in your personal life or at work, or better managing an area in which you struggle.

Do you suspect something is “off,” that you could be doing better? Feeling better? You could, even, be happier? What’s stopping you? Sometimes, it is anxiety or depression. Often it is an addiction to something that for a while made things better - drugs, alcohol, spending, and others. These are false strategies that promised relief, but in the end, caused more suffering. They make anxiety & depression worse, taking one down into a spiral of hopelessness and despair, even shame. You don't have to stay here. You can change.
