About
My practice is currently full. Please check back. --For decades, I've helped people of all kinds in a variety of life challenges. Through relational therapy, applying complementary therapeutic approaches such as CBT, my goal is to help YOU uncover your true potential and power to live a life you enjoy. Do you doubt that is possible? Therapy may consist of practicing skills related to social and emotional learning; learning how your thoughts effect everything, uncovering and navigating the life stories and perhaps telling those stories over and over, of depression, trauma, anxiety, loss, and stress. Want to try?
