Thirty years ago I began working in this field and my passion continues to grow. I understand how it feels to not be in a good place. To want to feel better, but not know how to change your situation. I work with with anxiety, depression, adjustment and life changes. Specialties for women include pre-menopausal and postpartum issues and motherhood. I specialize in eating/body image disorders. My other passion is working with couples to focus on better communication, adjustment and boundary issues or resetting a path which may have gotten off course. Inner work is a lifelong process. Lets's get started on that journey!
I believe the client/therapist relationship is the most important part of therapy. Clients need to feel listened to, cared for and heard. Together we can build a relationship were you feel comfortable and safe so that we can explore your feelings and begin to use tools to help you feel good again!
I can promise you a warm , communicative, caring environment along with years of both professional and life experience. No matter what you've been through or are going through, you CAN feel better and I want to help you get started!
