I work with adults and older adolescents who are dealing with anxiety and depression that interferes with their ability to maximize their progress at work and school and limits satisfying family and personal relationships. In addition, I find that life transitions can trigger emotional crises, but they also offer the opportunity for people to develop better strategies that can improve old patterns that have been unsuccessful in resolving problems in the past. Other areas of focus have included working on parenting strategies, marital relationships, grief and loss, and the impact of chronic illness on one's emotional life.

Now accepting NEW clients — Feelings of anxiety, depression, and grief are totally normal responses in these difficult times.

I counsel individuals, couples and families born before 1981. Since our thoughts, feelings, beliefs, attitudes and behavior are generated by our brain, that's my focus - your brain. Whatever problems you have, whatever stressors you suffer, they can only be managed by how you think about them and what you do. That's the essence of Cognitive-Behavior Therapy. So, I strive to help you "change your mind" so you are self confident, self reliant, and resilient in facing your challenges. Let's get on with it! Life is short!
