Most of the patients I currently see have complex trauma, unresolved childhood or early life events. I also have lots of experience working with people through depression, anxiety or other general life stressors. Healing is difficult and starting therapy can be hard. Taking that first step is a step in the right direction.

I believe meaningful change happens within safe, supportive relationships. Being truly heard and understood can profoundly impact a person’s sense of identity, resilience, and hope. Counseling is more than a career path for me—it is a commitment to walking alongside individuals during vulnerable and transformative moments in their lives.
I am especially drawn to working with children, adolescents, and families. I understand that behavior is often a form of communication, particularly for young people who may lack the language to express complex emotions.

I support clients in deconstructing harmful or limiting beliefs in these stories and rewriting them from a more compassionate and neuroaffirmng understanding of themselves. I also incorporate aspects of art therapy, play therapy, CBT, DBT, person-centered therapy, and feminist theory.

Marriage counseling. I Help Couples Restore Selfless Loving in Marriage! Sometimes there simply is so much pain. But when those first love feelings can be remembered and desired, and when some selflessness begins to return, it can become a gift that keeps on giving. For marrieds coming to me, in my most-used approach the focus is not on complaining about problems, but on learning new ways to listen and think: I coach, you two talk together. Often this brings hope! If your situation is not in my areas of expertise, I will offer referrals, like any good counselor should do. Perhaps your situation can improve! Give me a call!

FAQ - About Therapy for Seniors
Is one ever too old for mental health therapy?
Individuals of all ages can benefit from mental health therapy. Indeed, older adults in particular may benefit from the social and psychological support a therapist can provide; the topics that older adults address in therapy may simply differ from those of younger clients. Seniors should seek out a therapist who has experience working with older individuals and who is well-versed in addressing common concerns among elderly individuals, such as depression, anxiety, loneliness, and physical mobility challenges.
How is counseling for seniors and the elderly different from counseling for other age groups?
In general, counseling offers an opportunity for clients to process difficult life events and develop coping skills they can use outside of the therapy session. Therapists who specialize in working with elderly clients generally have the same framework but may place a special emphasis on specific topics, such as caregiver relationships and reducing loneliness. They may be specially equipped to deal with certain physical conditions or facilitate discussion surrounding end-of-life topics. Counseling for the elderly may also place a greater emphasis on social work-type topics to ensure that geriatric clients have access to necessary resources, such as food, a safe home environment, and healthcare.
How can therapy improve the quality of life of aging individuals?
Therapy for aging adults can greatly improve quality of life by providing an opportunity for them to process difficult emotions related to end-of-life, navigate relational or caregiver challenges, and develop coping skills for common mental health conditions, like anxiety or depression. Subsequent reductions in negative emotions and mental health disorder symptoms can make day-to-day living much more manageable for aging adults and those that care for them. The ongoing relationship with a trusted therapist can also help seniors combat loneliness and provide a sense of structure for their routine.
What are the qualities to look for in therapists who see seniors?
Seniors counselors, like mental health counselors in general, should be kind, empathetic, skilled at listening, and knowledgeable about their particular area of expertise. Counselors specializing in working with the senior population should be very familiar with the aging process in general and the common conditions that the elderly can face, such as dementia, depression, loneliness, and/or physical illness. Many senior counselors are also well-equipped to help caregivers and families navigate the aging process of their loved ones, and they may draw on Interpersonal Therapy to help facilitate improved interactions between seniors and those that care for them.
