About
I am taking new online clients. You will find me empathetic and interested in the ways you want to approach your care. . Clients that resonate with me look for expertise, connection, humor, positive regard, support, and warmth. Therapy requires a dual commitment and also dual understanding that everyone will not make every appointment when life intrudes. Plus trauma, anxiety, couple issues, bipolar or life changes are challenging to discuss. Together we gently approach these pathways and help people feel safe talking about the difficult things at their pace. As these roads open more, healing becomes a real possibility.
My understanding of bipolar treatment is comprehensive, unique and based on guidelines to receive concurrent medical (yes meds) and counseling care. I also understand managing this takes courage and I will be your biggest ally in creating personalized care. Other specialties focus on life transitions, depression, anxiety, loss, and couples counseling.
I invite you to come to my safe space (via internet), and explore where you are stuck, bothered or challenged. Therapy is not easy, but often, people feel supported by me to explore the hardest things and they competently take over my job and are able to face their challenges with much greater confidence. I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
