Engaging in therapy is one of the many ways we can care for ourselves. I’ve been a counselor for over 15 years working with clients who seek support around a variety of issues impacting emotional well-being and daily living.

I am a licensed professional counselor with over 20 years experience.

Painful relationship issues and lifestyle struggles can interfere with all aspects of life. Distress, Depression, anxiety, marital conflict or alienation, job stress, losses and health problems impact the quality of home life, career functioning, physical and mental health. Effective psychotherapy can help you face these challenges and empower you to improve your life. With training and expertise in a variety of therapeutic techniques, I use a comprehensive, practical approach attuned to your needs and goals. I have many years experience helping couples, individuals and families connect with themselves and each other. Identifying, understanding and clearly communicating our true needs, we can break destructive negative patterns.

Finally deciding to seek out therapy can sometimes feel overwhelming and even increase uncomfortable feelings. Finding the "right fit" with a therapist means taking emotional risks to get the support you deserve. For many years I have worked to help individuals regain or perhaps even discover for the first time, a sense of inner peace. My practice incorporates holistic, somatic & integrative approaches to treat a wide range of mental health challenges. I believe "theory" is invaluable, however, experience and research shows that successful therapy is closely connected to the relationship that develops between therapist and client.

We feel caught in a loop of endless drama unable to escape the gridlock.
