Working with diverse communities in the Rivertowns, women, couples, students and people of all ages are my specialties. I believe in a warm, compassionate and professional approach to counseling where client and counselor are able to work together. Assessing the strengths of each individual, and helping that person achieve their life goals despite the many obstacles in their way, or the losses they may be suffering is what I strive for as a therapist. As Carl Rogers says best "The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change."

I provide a relaxed and non-judgmental environment in which to focus on understanding the issues you are having and to map out an effective path to change.

I also have expertise as a clinical health psychologist and have worked in outpatient and hospital settings with families, patients and healthcare teams to improve coping with and management of chronic illnesses like diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and HIV/AIDS.

Have you felt stuck in how you're feeling, or that your capacity to manage life is stretched thin? Do you sense that there could be more to how you experience life but you're not sure how to strengthen your capacity? Life experiences can at times lead to losing hope that the fulfillment you're looking for is not attainable. Somewhere along the way, something happened that took you away from your hopefulness and enthusiasm, and you became disconnected from these core parts of yourself. Our work together is to discover where that disconnection is showing up in your life presently and deepen your capacity to experience your life fully.

For many of us, there comes a time when something in our life feels out of balance, out of control. Perhaps it's our marriage or partnership, a family relationship, a job, our health. As a psychotherapist, I feel my goal is not to provide you with answers or advice, but to help you understand yourself, your world, and your place in it.

I have expertise in treating anxiety, mood and OCD disorders (trichotillomania, BDD, skin picking). I use cognitive behavioral methods that have been shown to be effective in specific problem areas and tailor them to particular patients. My treatment philosophy is one that combines humanistic values and CBT interventions.
