Your healing can begin right now when you make the brave decision to choose a therapist who will listen deeply, seek to understand your feelings, and help you create a new and empowering story about who you truly are. That is my approach to therapy. My aim is to teach my clients how to identify old, limiting beliefs that interfere with their relationships, their sense of purpose, and inner peace. Together, we can work on healing the unhealthy relationship you have with yourself if you are willing to shed that old identity to embrace one that is whole, genuine, and resilient.

I work best with clients who are troubled by anxiety, depression, relationship issues, losses or trauma, and life transition issues. I provide individual and family therapy for children, adolescents, and adults. I use a variety of treatment techniques including cognitive, psychodynamic, and client-centered therapies as well as behavior management strategies. My research on coping with traumatic life events has prepared me well to work with clients who have experienced trauma and crisis. A life crisis can be debilitating at first, but can lead to a search for meaning and dramatic new growth. It is exciting for me to accompany clients in this process!

I want to help you get to a better place! I listen carefully to your unique story without judgment, and cherish the privilege of helping you make good decisions about your future within your value system. My belief is that therapy is about a humble self-love, whereby you learn to balance your needs and to advocate for them, while always keeping in mind the needs of the people who are essential in your life. Therapy is also about finding courage to deal with the challenges life presents you. This is slightly easier when you partner with an experienced therapist who cares deeply about your peace, success, and happiness.

At times a child’s behavior can become unmanageable. This can create turmoil within the family’s relationships and leave parents at a loss for where to turn. When typical parenting strategies are ineffective, parents can feel overwhelmed, frustrated and even hopeless. I specialize in helping parents of children with pathological demand avoidance, highly sensitive children, anxiety, and obsessive-compulsive disorder.

I join people where they are. That might be on the floor with a four-year-old, co-writing and illustrating epic adventures on giant sketch pads. It might be commiserating about a teen's difficult breakup or staggering homework load. Or it might be talking together about the stresses in a couples' life -- young children, difficult co-workers, no time for intimacy. I welcome teens, adults and couples to my practice. My areas of specialization include ADD/ADHD, ASD, relationship issues, loss and grief, recovery from trauma, anxiety, and depression.
