Do you feel that you are "just getting by" or not even that? Have you been experiencing feelings of anxiety, depression or being overwhelmed? Do you feel that you and your spouse/significant other are not "connecting" in the way that you would like? Are you unable to stop self-destructive behaviors such as sexual acting out, compulsive use of pornography, alcohol or drug abuse, eating or gambling? Has a recent crisis made you feel out of control or unable to handle things as you have in the past? Feeling good is important!
Through my training and experience we will work together to have a better understanding of what is going on and find solutions together to help you reach the goals you are striving for. Therapeutic approaches are determined to be individualistic and specifically tailored for each client.
I specialize in areas of intimacy & relationships, sexuality, self-esteem, trauma & coping, anxiety and depression. The clients I work with are motivated, higher functioning individuals and couples committed to learning more about themselves, growing, and resolving issues that are holding them back. My style is warm, empathic and action-oriented.
