People seek therapy for many reasons. Lifelong struggles or new life events that leave you feeling overwhelmed, sad or stuck might have you considering therapy. Were you or someone in your life diagnosed with a life changing illness? Have you been coping with your sadness and stress by drinking too much? Or have you been struggling with an internal conflict that is leaving you with many different feelings such as loneliness, depression, or anxiety? Therapy can help you find peace and provide long lasting benefits to you and your relationships.

We all face challenges that can sometimes seem overwhelming. Are you negotiating life changes? Are you trying to reduce depression, anxiety, stress, or loneliness? Are you in a relationship that you wish was bringing you both more joy? I will partner with you in a safe supportive environment to help you overcome these challenges and realize your goals. My approach is highly personalized. I will collaborate with you to build upon your strengths and avoid the negative behavior patterns that hold you back. You are a unique person, with unique needs, and I fully respect that. When it comes to therapy, one size does NOT fit all.

My 23 years of experience as a counselor places me in a unique position to understand the complexities, struggles, and frustrations that often accompany the ever changing landscape of our lives. Sometimes these changes are the result of fluctuations in our relationships, or alterations in our environment, and sometimes, they're the re-emergence of old behaviors that may have been a stumbling block in the past. At other times, your life might suddenly lead you to a place where your problem is simply the need for a new "game plan", in order to facilitate greater achievement.

I love my work and feel incredibly fortunate to have formed so many meaningful therapeutic relationships. It is a privilege to travel with clients as they emerge from suffering and utilize the strengths they have found and the skills they have learned to achieve balance and ultimately, their life goals. The relationship between therapist and client is a real, equalitarian relationship built on honesty, respect, and collaboration. As we get to know each other, you will find that I am warm, genuine, non-judgmental, flexible, direct, and irreverent. I have a good sense of humor and believe that laughter is an important part of healing.

I am a psychotherapist (LCSW) who works with individuals, couples and families on a wide range of issues. I have extensive experience treating depression, anxiety disorders, relationship issues, divorce and parenting issues. From my work in hospitals and community mental health clinics, I also have a background in psychiatric diagnosis, and assessment of an individual client's need for psychiatric medications.

Navigating life’s challenges is no easy pursuit. At times we don’t feel we have the skills or resources to cope successfully, especially without support. My clients are individuals, couples and families seeking therapy for anxiety, depression, grief, trauma as well as relationship challenges and difficulty associated with life transitions, communication struggles, (co)parenting skills. As a relational therapist I believe that every person, and relationship, has the potential for growth and positive change and I want you to feel empowered to take the steps toward the life you want to be living.

I am a licensed clinical social worker. I have experience working with depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and eating disorders, . I work with clients who seek to explore their thoughts and emotions, how these feelings and thinking patterns connect to their experiences, and understand overall impacts on quality of life. My clients work to develop healthy coping mechanisms through self-reflection and therapeutic connection to better navigate their relationships, emotions, and life stressors. I would love to work together to create healthy coping skills, enhance interpersonal relationships, and improve quality of life.

Why do people seek therapy? Either something has just happened or something KEEPS happening...We usually know when we need to talk to someone professionally, but sometimes we resist reaching out; pride, shame, family beliefs can postpone this call. I encourage this first step, interview your therapist and find the person best suited for you.

With over 30 years experience treating adults and children, I make myself available to provide support throughout crisis. Reaching out for support can be difficult and anxiety provoking. Struggles with depression can prevent one from seeking help. I allow an hour and a half for an initial consultation for you or a loved one. You will find me to be direct, honest, readily available and straightforward in my approach to facilitating change and growth. Specialties include: CBT, (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), anxiety, depression, addiction, marital strife, Care for the Caregiver Executives & Professionals. Weekend appointments.

I am not your typical therapist, and strive to always create that emotional connection that allows us to work through any issue as a team. Most of my clients have already tried traditional therapy, and haven't been able to engage in one way or the other. Many of my clients haven't felt heard or understood, and it is a goal of mine to make therapy accessible for all. My belief as a therapist is that everyone can benefit- and should benefit from the relationship they have with their therapist. My clients believe in person centered care- and feedback goes both ways. I provide a trauma informed environment where the client gets to lead.

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist specializing in psychotherapy with adults and couples in English and Spanish. I welcome the opportunity to work with individuals dealing with important issues and transitions in their lives, who often struggle with feelings of depression and anxiety. Some of my clients seek to make sense of traumatic experiences and to deal with painful and uncomfortable emotions. Many struggle with identity and self-worth issues.

The people I work with seek therapy for all the emotional turmoil life throws at you: pressures to perform, anxiety, marriage and premarital distress, trouble sleeping and changes in mood. Others I see come to therapy with a broader wish to understand their own nature, to see themselves and timeworn habits more clearly. In each case, my goal is not to simply fix problems in your life or marriage, but rather to help you gain control when it seems like the world around you is spinning. For couples, my goal is to move your relationship from distress to security, understanding and mutual trust.
