Someone once asked me, "What are the three key traits of an effective therapist?" "Empathy, empathy, and empathy," was my reply, emphasizing the importance of understanding another's perspective. Having experienced similar challenges, I can relate to what you might be going through. This emotional bond, paired with my academic expertise, is what makes me an effective therapist. Just to be clear, anything we discuss stays between us. Building trust and comfort, over time, is what makes the therapeutic relationship work. One of my aims is to create an atmosphere where you can feel safe to share. I will not judge you.
You have the ability to overcome your challenges and create a more fulfilling life. Although it requires effort and can be a difficult journey, if you're ready to push past the obstacles holding you back from a living life, we can collaborate to help you reach your desired destination.
As I learn about your life, I want you to feel free to ask me about mine. I hope that some of my experiences help you to understand and get past some of your own struggles. Therapy is not a one way street.

I conquered addiction when I was a teenager, 53 years ago. Throughout my life, I have experienced anxiety, depression, and PTSD, gaining firsthand insight. This understanding comes from living it, not just reading about it. At 66, I decided to go back to school. Why? I find purpose helping others.
