I love working with couples, families, individuals, adolescents, and parents about their personal issues and emotional needs. I am a family therapist who believe most people can manage their own lives, except for those few times when life throws a curve ball, then we may have difficulty figuring how to handle that ball. We often find ourselves going in circles using old techniques and patterns that don't work . Let me help you step out of the repetitive loop by helping you identify the patterns and discover new ways to mange this particular ball.

When you feel stuck in patterns you want to break—ashamed, overwhelmed, or not yourself, repeating behaviors you swore you'd change or feel like the “black sheep,” you end up feeling disconnected, hopeless and struggle to set boundaries and acknowledge your needs. You feel drained and tired.
But you don't have to keep carrying this alone.
Therapy can be a place where you begin to untangle those old patterns and rediscover who you really are. Together, we can work toward healing past hurts, building self-trust, strengthening your relationships, and helping you feel more confident and at peace in your own life.

I believe that everyone, young and old, has a right to feel good about themselves. Sometimes, things happen in life that leave us feeling unprepared for the road ahead. We look in the mirror and are unhappy with what we see. We want to feel good about ourselves but don't know how. Past trauma can leave us vulnerable to the environment around us. That is when we need help in discovering who we are and how we want to live our lives. I will use my knowledge and expertise to help you find your best self and live your best life.

"It is better to light a candle than curse the darkness." This famous Eleanor Roosevelt quote can be applied to many situations. When we get stuck -- in a rut at work, in a stormy relationship, in a lukewarm marriage, with our children -- we suffer but are often pulled to focus on the problem rather than finding a solution. Sometimes, we're not aware of what the actual issue is. All we can do is try to avoid the pain, skirt problems, even pretend we are fine. We are blocked by fear -- another word for anxiety. Together, we can walk slowly through that fear, and find that light.
