As a classically trained psychologist, I view my work as a blend of art and science. My patients are generally competent, loving people who are struggling with painful issues related to relationships, sexuality, life changes, work and other stressful situations. Many also suffer from situational or long-standing feelings of depression, anxiety or inadequacy. All are motivated to make meaningful change. My style is open, relational, and collaborative, and my approach is based on decades of experience and a fundamental understanding that no two people are alike. Therapy focuses on both on symptom relief and personal growth.

As a therapist I adjust my style and approach to each individual I work with. I draw on my expertise and experience to determine how to best help each person develop the tools, confidence, and self understanding that are often required to break old patterns of behavior and achieve higher levels of emotional health and life satisfaction.
My goal is to join with each person to harness his or her own strengths in a way that is most true to his or her self. I understand that it requires both vulnerability and strength for an individual or a couple to develop effective strategies to approach life's most difficult challenges. I aim to offer the support and guidance necessary to take this on.
