I want to help you reach your full potential, achieve your goals, and better understand yourself. To do this I will help you increase awareness of your healthy and unhealthy patterns and provide you with tools to change unhealthy patterns. I offer empathy and support in this process of developing your strengths. I have helped people attain the relationships they desired, achieve job satisfaction, and build confidence. I have also helped many people successfully navigate through familial concerns, life transitions, identity issues, sexuality issues, depression, and anxiety.
I work with couples using the Developmental Model to improve communication and understanding between partners by teaching new skills and increasing self-awareness. I offer weekly sessions and half-day intensives for couples who need more concentrated time to work on impasses in their relationship, a crisis, or do not have time for weekly sessions.
I have been a therapist for over twenty years. I have helped individuals, couples, and families live happier and more fulfilling lives. I am here to help you become the person you want to be and have the relationship you desire.
