My goal as a therapist is to partner with my clients to help them improve their quality of life.

Having a safe place to explore and share your concerns is essential. The experience of being heard, seen and validated without judgment offers the possibility for real change. You are not alone, and sharing in connection will enable you to move on and to put obstacles, which may seem overwhelming, into perspective. I offer intuitive, empathic and interactive therapy using an eclectic approach informed by training in psychodynamic, relational, somatic mind body therapies and the use of expressive arts (art, movement, role-play, sound/music).

We all experience times in our lives when what once worked for us no longer does. We may become overwhelmed, anxious, fearful, or angry and are no longer able to ignore those feelings. Instead they get in our way. Talking to someone, especially one who listens to you carefully and joins you in a collaborative and supportive process, is amazingly helpful. People with whom I work note that they begin to feel better and less alone almost immediately.
