If you are reading this page, you are probably in some kind of crisis or difficulty you have not been able to sort out by yourself. Although this can be uncomfortable, it also provides great possibilities for change. As a trained therapist with over 30 years of experience, I have a broad array of experiences and tools to help you effect the changes you want to make in a way that is gentle and respectful.

I'm a Jungian-oriented Board Certified Licensed Professional Mental Health Counselor & Registered Art Therapist in the states of CT, IL, NY, PA, TX. I specialize in relationships, adult attachment anxiety, codependency, childhood trauma (emotional neglect, alcoholism, narcissistic parenting), and major life transitions (times in a person's life which call for deep self-evaluation). I use humor, empathy, and alternative methods of healing to help you find your own path in life! While life is at times a Tragi-Comedy, we can walk through the fire and free ourselves from the grips of anxiety, inner criticism and fear of loss.

I believe that people have the capacity for change. Often it is difficult to find the tools on our own to heal. We are blocked by destructive patterns brought on my traumatic events and simple life experiences that create automatic thoughts and beliefs. By creating awareness of this I can guide people to find their own accountability and gain control of their life so that they can ultimately align with the person they would like to be. I can provide a holistic approach to mental health that provides my clients with mindfulness, movement and nutrition in an effort to empower my clients to feel their best.
