I am warm, open, and informal. People feel safe and comfortable enough to trust me with their secrets, fears, and intimacies. I am aware that by the time you call a therapist, you want some relief! So, I work from the "Top Down" -- giving stress-relief, relaxation, new perspectives, and ways to help you to feel better quickly --as well as from the "Bottom Up", so you understand why you are the way you are, and how you might change what you want to...
People call me "The Relationship Expert" because I have helped them resolve issues in relationships, or helped them find and keep a relationship! With couples, I strive to provide a safe space to explore all possibilities for happier outcomes. I also consider it a privilege to deal with other life problems, such as illness, aging, dying, and grief.
I I believe that therapy, like life, should encompass both panoramic and microscopic vistas, wisdom, and laughter. Good therapy affirms life, and all of its amazing possibilities. I want to help you develop and enjoy inner peace, meaning, purpose, passion, and a zest for life!
