The decision to begin psychotherapy takes courage and commitment. I work with individuals and couples, creating a safe environment for problem-solving, healing and growth. I believe there are discernible reasons for the pain people feel and the problem behaviors we sometimes exhibit, and that understanding those reasons is an important step in reducing painful symptoms and self-defeating behaviors, and in feeling better.
Our work will be collaborative. I will use strategies selected to meet your unique needs, emphasizing compassion, resilience and self-acceptance, particularly for those whose lives have been impacted by traumatic events. I am an EMDR Certified Therapist.
Whatever the challenges you’re facing, whether new or ongoing, somewhat stressful or deeply disruptive, we will together find the right path toward realizing your goals, your strengths and the fulfillment you deserve in your life.
