Every baby deserves a healthy parent, and every parent deserves to feel empowered and supported during pregnancy and postpartum. If you are pregnant or have recently had a baby, this transition may be bringing along feelings of anxiety, sadness, fear, or confusion. Seeking out support is a sign of strength, and can have positive impacts on the health of the individual, the parent-child relationship, and the family as a whole.

Life can be hard...stressful things happen. It can be difficult to sort it all out. There are times in our lives where we lose track of who we are and what we need. Therapy can help by providing you with the time, space and support to help you better understand what’s going on and what steps you can take to feel better.

I strive to provide a warm and non judgmental space that allows for relief from the burdens we carry each day. I believe everyone is equipped with the resources within to overcome challenges in their life, but sometimes we can get stuck. Life’s obstacles can often alter our perception of ourselves and others, and our perceptions about the world. We can easily lose sight of our inner strengths and disconnect from ourselves and others. You might find your mind racing, be overwhelmed with stress, or want to shut down.

Confused by what all the acronyms are behind the therapists names? Aren't they all just therapists? Realizing that in every therapy profile they describe their self as "eclectic".... How about trying to understand where you fall on a sliding scale but wondering how your insurance could play effect? What is therapy?.... Life throws a lot at us and it always seems to occur all at once, leaving us with unanswered questions and lack of support. I'm here to help make sense of it all and get us to where we mentally deserve to be at this time in our life.

In my 10+ years in clinical work, the individuals that I work with tend to experience some of the following challenges: coping with daily stressors around work, finances, parenting, career choices, or relationships, managing difficulties due to anxiety, adhd, autism, depression, nervous system dysregulation as a result of trauma experiences (early childhood and as an adult), codependency, or parenting a child with these challenging experiences which can lead to dysregulated behaviors. We will work together to develop a plan that best meets your needs, so that you can make specific and concrete changes/choices on a daily basis.

My practice is based on presumption that mind can create dysfunctional, disruptive and destructive functioning patterns, but it also has an enormous potential for healing from those patterns by recognizing, resolving, modifying and integrating them. Toward that end, I use therapeutic approaches where the therapy itself is "held" by strong alliance and trust in process, that as it deepens, allows for access and application of client's unique conscious and unconscious healing potentials. The therapy is effective with depressed and/or anxious individuals, couples with problems, as well as individuals with unresolved traumas or PTSD.

I have over 30 years experience working as a psychotherapist with a great variety of people who have come to me for help. My style is conversational, engaging and direct - I prefer a humane rather than a clinical approach and I actively participate in creating our work together. I love to help people develop emotionally and be able to make creative changes and meet challenges in their lives. My experience has been that people frequently discover, in their work with me, that they have more resources with which to build their lives than they had previously imagined.

I have worked with children, adolescents and adults with various emotional and mental health needs. My career began working with at-risk youth suffering from severe emotional disturbances. I later began working with children and families within their homes to secure a healthy balance of support and resources, while enhancing their sense of self. I enjoy working with individuals, families and couples. I am open to networking with any provider (i.e., teachers, primary care physicians, psychiatrists,etc.) that are involved in one's care. I believe in helping individuals identify their strengths and incorporating these strengths into their daily lives.

Do you feel depressed, overwhelmed, anxious, or unsure of which direction to take your relationships, your job, or your life? Are these feelings holding you back from living the life you truly want? I love joining with my clients to explore these barriers and working to overcome them to create peace, health and happiness. Through skill building and meaningful conversation, you can move forward. In my practice, counseling can include humor; both laughter and tears are important parts of healing and growing. While I certainly respect that serious matters are discussed in therapy, we can usually find ways to enjoy our progress.

Psychotherapy, to me, is about getting to know and accept yourself, gaining an understanding of how you relate to yourself and the world around you, learning better ways to manage emotions and healing past traumas in order to live your happiest, healthiest life. I use a combination of traditional talk therapy and various expressive modalities to help clients reach their healing goals.
