Change and disappointment are an inevitable part of life. Counseling can provide you with support as you navigate life's ups and downs.

It takes a great deal of courage to seek help and doing so is the first step toward change. Life can be difficult and sometimes we need support adjusting to it's challenges. You may be feeling stuck or constantly on edge and overwhelmed by worry and that unrelenting self critic. You are not your best self but the thought of change can be terrifying. Whether you are confronting relationship issues, divorce, life transitions, anxiety, trauma, or grief and loss, my goal is to provide you with a genuine and supportive therapeutic relationship where you can grow, heal, and thrive. Change is possible and I am here to help.

Licensed and practicing in NY and CT, I offer services for individuals, couples, and families. I specialize in working with clients experiencing a variety of issues including; 1) Life transitions (going away to college, new baby, loss of spouse, new job, etc.), 2) Experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress, 3) Romantic or family relationship issues (infidelity, household tension, poor communication, parenting, etc.), and 4) Improvement of sexual wellness (sexual orientation or desire to enhance sexual experience). Therapy can be ongoing or short-term intensive depending upon clients' needs or preferences.

Life can be a struggle. There are likely times when you likely don't know where to turn to sort things out. Perhaps it's a relationship or your work or an issue with family or just a feeling of being completely alone in whatever you are facing. Talking to someone who really listens to you and won't judge you can be very therapeutic. My style is to listen well, ask the questions that you might not have thought of asking, offer you different perspectives about your issues, and help you identify as many options as possible to find resolution and wholeness. I'm here to help you with that process.

I have been a counselor for over 18 years, working with people ages 17 and older. Some of the issues I treat include mood disorders, grief and loss, sexual abuse, trauma, divorce, bereavement, lifespan transitions and relationship difficulties. My aim is to offer a holistic approach specific to the needs of each person. In my practice, I incorporate a blend of treatments such as interpersonal, solution focus, cognitive behavioral, animal assisted, yoga therapy and group therapy. I am now seeing clients in person in my Suffield office as well as telehealth. I am now accepting private yoga therapy clients in Suffield CT.

People seek therapy for many reasons. Lifelong struggles or new life events that leave you feeling overwhelmed, sad or stuck might have you considering therapy. Were you or someone in your life diagnosed with a life changing illness? Have you been coping with your sadness and stress by drinking too much? Or have you been struggling with an internal conflict that is leaving you with many different feelings such as loneliness, depression, or anxiety? Therapy can help you find peace and provide long lasting benefits to you and your relationships.

As a professionally trained therapist, I've helped many individuals, couples, families work through difficult challenges. I'm passionate about my clients and I'm committed to their well-being. My approach is to provide an atmosphere where you can feel safe to explore troubling situations and their impact on your emotional health. My style is warm, compassionate, non-judgmental & proactive allowing you to evolve through the therapy process. My goal is to empower you to find long-lasting solutions that strengthen your outlook as well as develop strong relationships that serve as a source of support & fulfillment throughout your life.

Why do people seek therapy? Either something has just happened or something KEEPS happening...We usually know when we need to talk to someone professionally, but sometimes we resist reaching out; pride, shame, family beliefs can postpone this call. I encourage this first step, interview your therapist and find the person best suited for you.
