I enjoy helping individuals heal, see breakthroughs, and increase their resilience and ability to find effective approaches to their presenting concerns. My passion is to empower clients to manage life difficulties that encroach on their envisioned life architecture by gently identifying and removing obstacles, learning adaptive coping, finding meaning and strength, and sometimes rebuilding from the very foundation when faced with life-changing adversities. Issues germinate and gain destructive power if ignored or dealt with using unhelpful distractions, so you can feel good about taking that first step to call me with no delay.

I use an integrative approach to therapy that is collaborative, solution-focused, and aimed at creating meaningful movement towards positive change. I want to provide a safe, secure, and non-judgmental environment in which clients can feel free to openly discuss their thoughts and feelings. I am a member of the LGBTQ community and thoroughly enjoy helping clients overcome their fear and anxiety and move towards a more authentic life. I additionally enjoy helping couples and families improve communication and overall relationship dynamics. I believe that change happens when knowledge and experiences are shared.

I am passionate about walking with, and supporting folks who, despite their successes, are confused by their lack of true joy or meaning in this life. So many of us wrestle with feeling deeply unfulfilled and real difficulty finding lasting and nourishing connection with others. Far too many of us then struggle privately, which rarely leads to less struggle. My mission is to create a space that feels safe and accepting where your individual struggle can be seen, accepted, understood, and worked out in a way that brings you a sense of peace.

I have had the opportunity to work with individuals of all ages for over 51 years. I approach everyone I see with a lifetime of experience about countless others but see the uniqueness of each individual. I meet people on the road where they are and assist them in taking life changing steps toward where they want to be. I see myself as a "midwife", helping each person give birth to a better life. Ultimately I see "my job is to put myself out of a job...but I need your help."

If you are looking for a therapist, it can be a very difficult choice. It is a deeply personal relationship, because that person will know you as well as anyone. The relationship is about functioning with less stress and anxiety, without depression holding you down, with relationships that are honest and healthy, and with real connection to family, friends and your highest self. Therapy is a conversation with yourself, facilitated by another, to bring about change in some area of your life. Change your mind and change your life! LGBTQ friendly and experienced.
