I find it very gratifying to work with both female and male adult clients who feel stuck in life, who have a real desire to discover meaning, and who want to discover or renew their sense of purpose and direction. I also find it rewarding to work with those who desire to break free from the debilitating symptoms of past trauma, and to process the intense pain of grief or personal loss. In addition, I truly enjoy working with couples, as well as parents and teenage children, who feel locked in conflict, but who also genuinely desire to improve their communication patterns and to achieve a positive breakthrough in their relationships.
Therapists are not better or different than others—to some extent, we all struggle with depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and in relationships. As a mental health professional, I am, as Carl Jung described, a “wounded healer” who is devoted to helping others find purpose and meaning in life, as well as practical solutions to life’s many complex challenges.
I believe in the uniqueness and sanctity of each human life, and in the sacredness of the counseling experience. I strive to make the counseling room a place where you can express yourself without fear of being judged, criticized, or told what to do. I also believe that each of us possesses strengths and talents that can help us lead more meaningful lives.
