Are you facing a new medical diagnosis or grieving the loss of a loved one? These massive changes can leave you feeling isolated, anxious, and unsure of where to turn. You might also feel overwhelmed by all that there is to do now: How do I talk to my children and family? What if work finds out? How will I ever get through this? If you have recently received a chronic, acute, or terminal medical diagnosis, there is the added stress of navigating the medical system and the uncertainty of what is ahead. Eventually, the distress, anxiety, and sadness that comes as a result of these changes can feel all-consuming.

Common triggers are life transitions like graduation, starting a career, entering a relationship, marking a milestone birthday, or experiencing a loss.
For more than thirty-five years I have worked as a therapist addressing a broad array of concerns. Forming a solid working relationship is the foundation of all therapeutic change. No matter where someone is in the life cycle, the search for meaning and purpose always remains an essential endeavor. Learning how to take care of ourselves is the task of a lifetime. A shared exploration of the past opens the way to a deeper understanding of the present and inspires hope for shaping the future. My intent is to identify barriers to change, work towards their removal, and engender personal advancement.

Specialties include navigating difficulties with emotional management, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, and self-identity conflicts.
I come to each client interaction with a deep respect for the courage and perseverance that is required for self-reflection and emotional growth. Entering therapy is difficult and may often happen when we are at our most vulnerable emotionally and experiencing dissatisfaction with our current life situation. Acknowledging and respecting the self as powerful creates a therapeutic environment that is compassionate, collaborative, and empowering.
