About
Chances are, you have happened upon this website because you are looking for something to be different: a feeling, a relationship, a thought, a mood...
Together, we will determine what needs to change by looking outside ourselves (exploring roles, rules, connection, boundaries, communication, and support) and by looking within ouselves (exploring thoughts, feelings, coping skills, internal dialogue, and how we've made meaning out of different experiences).
Through the process of learning, accepting and changing, something inherently will be different...and you will feel different.
I identify and build on each individual's strengths and resiliences in a caring and safe environment.
My specialties/areas of expertise include:
* Divorce/step-families
* Families with children with special needs
* Parenting issues/Women's Issues
* Couples counseling
* Mood disorders: Depression, Bipolar Disorder
* Anxiety Disorders
To support change, I typically use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive-Behavioral therapies viewed through a Family Systems lens. Through that process of change and acceptance, my clients find that they are better equipped to lead more adaptive, truly emotionally healthy lives.
