One thing we are all guaranteed to experience in life is CHANGE! Our families, friends, finances, intimate relationships, our health and careers can be counted on to consistently serve up both welcome, sought-after changes, and at other times bewildering, overwhelming new issues. My goal as a therapist is to help my clients clarify those changes in their lives that have become most challenging. I seek to create the kind of warm, trusting, engaged relationship that enables my clients to explore and develop the personal insights, coping skills, and self-awareness to allow them to cope with existing and future life changes.
In helping my clients explore their issues and find solutions, I pull from different theories and approaches, including Psychodynamic, Internal Family Systems (IFS), the Gottman Method (for couples), DBT and CBT. I work with adults of all ages, as well as children and teens. Most importantly, I tailor my therapy approach to the unique needs of my clients.
I offer free 15-min consultations to meet you and get an initial sense of who you are and why you are seeking therapy. I also hope to give you a sense of who I am, my style and intentions in providing psychotherapy. You can easily reach me by phone or email. I look forward to the opportunity to listen, support, and help!
