Do you want changes in your life but feel stuck or don't know where to start? Do you and your significant other seem to argue about the same things repeatedly without finding solutions? Do you have concerns about your adolescent or go rounds with them only to find you both feeling frustrated? I have 25 years of experience helping clients navigate these types of difficulties. It is my goal to provide support and assist clients in determining what is best for them and how to achieve the changes in life and relationships that they desire.
My work in session is client-driven; it is up to each client to determine if suggestions or homework is useful for them. If something doesn't work, then together we figure out what else to try. I assist in helping clients discover their strengths and how to take advantage of them to achieve the success and happiness they want in life.
I am certified in trauma treatment and sex therapy. I believe a good therapeutic relationship is vital in the success of therapy. I strongly encourage feedback from my clients about the process of therapy; I like to know if their needs are being met. Please call me for a consultation to see if we are a good fit!
