Are you ready to understand yourself and others better and get to the root of what is holding you back? Whether it is a difficult life transition, relationship troubles, dealing with past trauma, anxiety, loss, parenting challenges or a turning point in your life, I can help you to make sense of things and create meaningful change. I will take the time to understand who you are as a person and we will develop a plan together. I incorporate the use of Accelerated Resolution Therapy to help my clients overcome trauma, phobias, anxiety and decrease other difficult symptoms to live better lives. Call or email me today to get started.
I have worked with families in crisis, couples at crossroads, and individuals struggling with many different diagnoses and difficult life transitions. My services include individual therapy, couples and family therapy as well as parenting programs and executive coaching. I also work with other therapists who are seeking consultation, supervision or therapy.
Finding the therapist who is right for you directly affects your treatment outcome. My clients often comment on how quickly they felt able to connect with me. I will help you lay everything out on the table and explore your situation without judgement. Motivated clients report impactful changes in 12-16 sessions. Please note that I do not accept insurance.
