I bring to my practice the skills and experience of a rich 20-year career, as well as a solid humanistic approach to mental health, human relationships and growth. I believe that every human being has value, deserves respect, benefits from meaningful relationships, and has the capability for self-actualization. Therapy is a powerful process not only to overcome adversity, obstacles, or negative patterns in thinking, behaviors or relationships that may be causing suffering, but also it can be an extraordinary opportunity to explore and find your uniqueness, potential and strength in ways that you may have not considered before.

As a lesbian, I am also passionate about working with other members of the LGBTQ community.
Are you new to therapy and nervous to start? Or have you tried it before and spent your sessions trying to achieve a good grade in therapy – whatever that could possibly mean? I am a licensed social worker, and I'm passionate about working with young adults who are lost, worried, stressed, and anxious. Those who have spent their lives being high achievers and aren’t sure where the resume stops and they, a human person worthy of love just as they are, begin.

I work with individuals and couples to create positive changes in their lives. This includes those struggling in areas such as self-esteem, intimacy, addressing emotional needs, healing from past hurts/trauma, a history of neglect or abuse, or challenges regarding gender and sexuality. I work with couples, straight/lesbian/gay, who are working on their relationship, whether as a result of an affair, or realizing differences that keep them from being close. My research focuses on men and the effects of expectations on men’s lives. Pursuing therapy represents a longing to heal. My work is about supporting that process.

Psychotherapy is my dream job. I typically see individuals struggling with relational issues whether it be family or significant other and mood disorders (depression/anxiety). I listen and try to understand what a person needs in therapy; problem-solving, support, insight into life situations, difficult work situations, or personal growth and understanding. I work closely with the Gay/Lesbian population and do couples counseling.
