I opened In Step, a private mental health practice, more than 30 years ago in the hope that children, teens, parents, and adults would see us as a safe place where they can learn and grow. I specialize in working with folks who struggle with anxiety, depression, ADHD, parenting struggles, and relationship problems. Using various approaches – Relational Psychotherapy, Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, CBT (Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy), and Parent Coaching, I see clients alone, as part of a couple, and as part of the family.
Helping my clients build more satisfying relationships and happier more peaceful homes has been my focus for over 30 years of practice. As a Certified Group Psychotherapist for many years, I recognize the power of treating relationship challenges in group therapy. As such, In Step offers many therapy groups for children, teens and adults.
I have worked with countless groups and clients and am confident that I have experience with what you are dealing with, or that we can tackle it together. I would love to welcome you into my office to discuss your goals and how we can get there.
