Waitlist for new clients
When the challenges of life and relationship present you with complex dilemmas and create painful or uncomfortable symptoms, therapy offers an opportunity for healing and long-lasting psychological change.
The power of therapy is in the way it expands your choice in behaviors or ways of seeing others, yourself and your life circumstances.
Through a compassionate journey of self-exploration I will help you work toward a fuller understanding of yourself which will lead to greater choice in how you live, love, work and play.
It is a privilege to join you on your journey of self-discovery and healing.
I have over 18 years experience in the mental health field. Areas of special interest or experience include: anxiety, depression, gay and lesbian issues, women's issues including fertility and parenting, men's issues, veterans (trauma, PTSD), grief/loss, life transition, sexuality, attachment, adoption, marriage/couples, premarital work.
Post-graduate training: Advanced Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Program at the St. Louis Psychoanalytic Institute and the PEP Program at Care and Counseling. Regular guest appearances on Great Day St. Louis covering topics from relationship conflict & parenting challenges to difficult conversations.
