About
"We shall not cease from exploration and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time" T. S Eliot I believe that self-knowledge and understanding leads to self-compassion. Gently exploring aspects of the your experience within a collaborative relationship with a therapist in a warm, safe, nurturing, and empowering environment can move you toward a greater sense of connection to self. This can lead to more authentic, connected relationships with others-which as human beings is what we ultimately seek.
I utilize a psychodynamic approach focused on attachment and development over the life span. I believe in a strengths based approach with a focus on resilience and developing a clear pathway for what goals are important to you. I was recently awarded a certificate as a Specialist in the treatment of trauma
Seasoned professional with 40+ years experience in a variety of settings. I offer individual and couples therapy with a specialty in grief and loss, life transitions, young adult issues, divorce and separation, mediation, parenting, aging, adult adoptees, and trauma.
