For the past 4 decades plus, I have specialized in LGBTQ issues. I currently focus on gender identity issues and assist my transgender clients with navigating their often challenging journeys. As an "out" cisgender lesbian practitioner, I strive to help my LGBTQ clients travel from a place of shame to pride. Much of our work centers on self- esteem and the ways in which homophobia and transphobia impact so many areas of our lives-including family, career, and our intimate relationships. I love animals and also do veterinary counseling and consulting. My style is interactive and casual. I highly value your confidentiality.

When you are looking for a therapist, that decision often comes during times of crisis. This loss of balance and connection makes it hard to make decisions or trust anyone. But as you take this first step, I will honor your trust with a relationship that is free of judgement and focused on finding your foundation. Whether you are coping with trauma, depression, stress, anxiety, life transition, relationship or marital issues, we can work together to make things better. I bring to the table a deep knowledge of a diverse set of treatment methods that allow me to tailor your therapy uniquely to your personality, challenges and life.

"As long as she denies her own agency, real change is unlikely because her attention will be directed toward changing her environment rather than herself." (Irvin Yalom). When problems show up in life, the solution isn't always clear. As your therapist, I will work with you to bring about needed change in feelings, thoughts, or behaviors. I will listen to what you want from therapy and together we will likely identify patterns that play a role in your current difficulty.

You are not alone. Most people at some time in their life could benefit from seeing a professional therapist to help them through a difficult and stressful time. Therapy is often the last resort and people are naturally anxious talking about their difficulties with a stranger. To ease the process, I provide a safe, nonjudgmental, and caring environment to help you find your way through whatever is troubling you. I have recently expanded my practice to working with Senior Adults to address concerns unique to this age group. I work with caregivers as well - providing emotional support, education, and linkages to community resources.

Do you find that you blame yourself for things that involve other people? Or do you feel like you lost a connection with yourself? Regardless of what brings you to therapy, this search is the first step towards feeling better. We all have the capacity for emotional health, but during difficult times we may lose our sense of balance. That can leave us feeling anxious, overwhelmed, sad, stressed, frustrated, or hopeless.
