Tired. Irritable. Unmotivated. Disconnected. Each can be a sign that stress is taking a toll on you. Life can feel out of our control and unpredictable— 2 main ingredients for anxiety. It gets overwhelming! You might feel like the issues in your life or relationship aren't "big enough" for counseling, but it's important to know that anything holding you back from having a full & satisfying life is worthy of your attention. We all need support.

As a woman, life pulls you in many different directions. Pleasing everyone leaves you feeling overwhelmed especially after loss or sudden change. Worry, fear, guilt, & obligation spiral.

I specialize in helping women, who feel anxious & depressed from major life challenges, transitions, trauma & losses, move forward with renewed confidence & hope. With 30 years of experience, I collaborate with you to decrease anxiety & help you reach your personal goals.

The teenage years are the most vulnerable, exciting, and growing years of a young person’s life. Self discovery can often yield low self esteem, independence can easily shift to rebellion, and a slow maturation process often creates impulsive decision making. And when a parent’s warnings and worries don’t seem to have an impact on the teenager’s course, or when it feels too heavy to carry alone, it’s helpful to have another guiding force to help. Through counseling, an adolescent can feel understood, begin to understand themselves, and learn to understand and accept their role in the family and society.

Challenges are an inevitable part of life. When you feel lost, unhappy, or experience a significant change in your life, you may seek counseling. Counseling can help you gain a better understanding of your emotions, thoughts, and actions. By doing so, you can respond more effectively to life’s challenges, modify your engagement with distressing emotions, thoughts, and behaviors, enhance your self-esteem, establish better connections with others, improve productivity at work, and achieve a more purposeful and gratifying life.

In over 25 years practicing as a licensed clinical psychologist, I have helped people overcome a wide range of challenges and issues so they can not just survive, but thrive.

Sandplay Therapy is an effective tool for children and, too, it is an effective tool for adolescents and adults. Often, finding the words to express ones' feelings is a challenge. Together the client and the therapist review the creative process to help understand the feelings and experience. The picture created in the sand tray is a way for expressing ones’ internal feelings. Trauma whether it happens to a child, adolescent or an adult can contribute to feeling disorganized and insecure. For a child, adolescent or an adult feeling disorganized is scary. Sandplay Therapy will enhance self- regulation evident in one' behavior.

I offer empathic therapy with a focus on trauma informed practices. My approach is collaborative and psychodynamic, and driven by the unique needs of each individual client.
