Searching for a therapist can be overwhelming: scrolling through endless photos, personal statements, and credentials hoping to find someone with the perfect combination of traits to help you or your child. I don’t know if that perfect match exists, but I do believe the most important factor in therapy is the trusting relationship formed between the therapist and the client. I pride myself on my ability to connect with clients who haven’t clicked with therapists in the past, and for easing first-time clients into the process. I offer a warm, non-judgmental space, an open mind, a sense of humor, and a deep well of patience.

No matter the changing weather of your soul, no matter the pain, fear, and stuckness, there is, perhaps, no better thing than to be curious about yourself, and motivated to step outside your own box. You are far more than a collection of problems; you LIVE, and your life has intertwined with those of many others, helping create both. Lean in, explore...in the process, you will become more truly yourself. Become more creative, freer to love, and in touch with what matters to you. I'll help make therapy a different, positive kind of relationship, in which you can discover and apply your personal truth to a better life.

I will help you to understand your feelings and recognize patterns that are obstacles to leading a meaningful life.

My approach is comprehensive and integrates the tools offered by my clinical training in psychology, Jungian dream analysis as well as my knowledge of spiritual disciplines. Experience has taught me that each of us possess an inner intelligence that supports our efforts toward living a meaningful and productive life. As a therapist, I consider it my role to evoke and nurture this positive resource. I have found that my emphasis on supporting what is right in us produces better results than a narrow focus on what is wrong. I have learned to listen to the whole person.

I have over 35 years of experience treating self esteem, intimacy/relationship issues, anxiety, depression, sexual identity conflicts and stuttering.

I utilize a highly interactive, integrated approach of psychodynamic and cognitive therapy in a comfortable therapeutic setting to facilitate that sense of support and trust in a direct/honest relationship.

In my practice, I aim to create a space where you are listened to deeply, free from judgment and closed-mindedness so you can openly express yourself without inhibition.
