Do you feel stuck, confused, exhausted and hopeless that life can get better for you? Do you seek to find more peace, joy, maybe more intimacy? I am a European-born therapist with close to two great decades of counseling individuals and couples challenged with life stressors and transitions, trauma, lack of intimacy, relationship issues, self-esteem and image, mood, focus, grief, addictions... Over the years I have successfully supported youth, adults, couples and families from all walks of life and cultural backgrounds. Please note, the demand for services can be overwhelming, I try to respond to each inquiry if at all possible.
Modalities most often utilized: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, varied Mindfulness approaches, Solution Focused Therapy, Brief Interventions, Motivational Interviewing, Certified in Intensive Trauma Treatment as well as Treatment and Management of Substance Use.
Opening up to a stranger takes courage and trust, and can take time. I encourage an initial 15 minute call in order for you to ask any questions you may have about the process and my credentials.

So many of us struggle with knowing how we feel and why, and what we need and can create. Often we feel stuck in our pain. I help elicit my client's inner wisdom and find the way to what they seek in life. I listen deeply and promote positive action towards your goals.

For most of us our experience of life is often colored by our thoughts and behaviors, and we truly often cannot see the forest from the trees. In our work together the process allows us to zoom out, so to speak, and see the freedom that we do possess to have a high quality experience in our life. To take our power back and choose our story.
