My experience spans disorders, populations and modes of treatment from working with chronically mentally ill to individuals dealing with anxiety, substance abuse, depression, mood disorders, to people wanting to improve communication, coping with loss and trauma, helping
couples
dealing with relationship issues, developing family and interpersonal relationships to career transitions.
I am passionate about my work and believe in the healing benefits of psychotherapy. I view therapy as a process through which we explore the issues that confront you, place them in a context and develop strategies for change. Engaging in this process not only do we learn new ways of coping or getting "unstuck" but we also develop a more genuine relationship with ourselves, others and the world in general. I am authentic and direct but a considerate therapist who will work with you and assist in empowering you to move forward in meeting your goals with care, compassion and a sense of humor.

Maybe you and your
partner
are doing well in some areas of life but you wish there was better communication.
If you're someone that is having trouble with perfectionism, it can feel like there is this never-ending pressure on you to hit un-achievable standards. You feel a need to be in control of something in your life before everything unravels. You may feel stressed, frustrated, and that no one understands the pressure you have on yourself. You wish you could wave a magic wand and everything could go according to your plan. You want to be able to plan your future and feel assured that everything will go smoothly instead of anxious and worried about checking the next thing off your list. You want to be able to focus on the present moment.
