Many people have difficulty adapting to life's unforeseen challenges and seeking help can feel equally challenging. I believe that psychotherapy is invaluable in improving one's quality of life. Our experiences and characteristics can cause conflict in our relationships with ourselves & others. I value each individual's story as it creates our present day reality. Making sense of our life can be difficult to achieve alone. My approach is to help couples develop healthier, more adaptive relationships; nurture stable & respectful relationships; and move beyond the state of feeling "stuck" and toward growth.

Accepting new clients for both virtual and in person!
If you've lost a spouse, parent, child, sibling or beloved animal companion, you may be wondering whether the tears will ever stop, whether you will ever be able to remember them without feeling empty, or whether you are grieving "normally." Their last days and hours haunt you, stealing your sleep and wrecking your appetite. Your family and friends offer what they think are encouraging words, but it just makes you feel worse. You don't want to hear "sorry for your loss," or that your loved one is "in a better place." You just want them back and no one can give you that, so how are you ever supposed to feel happy again?

People who seek help through the stresses and traumas of life instead of succumbing to them are the bravest people I know. Although therapy may not feel courageous, at some point, we all need the presence and compassionate care of someone committed to our healing process. This is my passion. I work with courageous people who choose to move toward wholeness while continuing to live and care for the responsibilities of their lives. A large part of my work is devoted to helping men and women work through traumatic experiences in the present and those remembered from the past.

Choosing a therapist can be a scary and intimidating experience. It is important that you find a person that you and your family feel comfortable. I hope that I can be that person. The first step in therapy is to have a trusting a mutually resprectful relationship.
