I enjoy working with clients who want to improve the quality of their relationships. As part of supporting clients in addressing relationship issues, my work can involve working with clients on individual issues such as reducing depression and anxiety. I assist clients in exploring and processing feelings that contribute to depression and anxiety with the goal of promoting individual well-being which, in turn, contributes to improvement in relationships. I utilize a collaborative approach that involves supporting clients in understanding how past life experiences and current life issues are impacting their lives. Connecting clients with strengths is a primary treatment goal.

With several years of clinical experience working with an array of populations and their mental health challenges. Therapy is a collaboration between myself and the client. Growth and healing start by meeting my clients where they are and guiding them to where they would like to be.

You will face many defeats in your life, but never let yourself be defeated by Maya Angelou. Life is full of positive moments where the strength to define ourselves and develop skills to live more fully are easily found. But when life becomes whittled with challenges, stress, and struggles, the test then becomes learning to navigate our feelings, recognize our thoughts, and make changes in our behavior to live more wholly. Most of the time we are capable of handling life’s stresses, but sometimes things can get too overwhelming and stressful, and we need help.

Therapy is a collaborative process that can help us move through painful situations and challenging transitions, finding meaning even in darker places. As the poet May Sarton wrote, 'without darkness/nothing comes to birth/As without light/nothing flowers.' Constructing a safe and supportive container for healing allows us to explore patterns in a different light. In this renewed relational field, development and choices take root. Grounded in Somatics, an approach that builds awareness of links between mind and body, I am influenced by Jungian analytic psychology, psychodynamic, cognitive/behavioral, and family systems frameworks.

In my 25 years of psychotherapy practice for individuals, couples, and families, I have helped people identify, explore and heal the issues that have kept them from accomplishing what they want with their lives. My experience has shown that moving beyond right/wrong thinking, judgments and emotional reactivity can greatly facilitate growth and freedom. Paying attention to the sensations and feeling in our bodies and relaxing through deep breathing can create insights to quickly reveal one's essential issues. Over the last ten years I have spent considerable time doing couples therapy.

I am here for you, be it heartbreak, difficult relationships, concerns about substance use, past or currant traumatic experiences, anxiety, depression, or just feeling stuck, as if you keep walking in to quicksand and unable to move forward. Life just isn't working for you at this point, and you know it can be better. The issues you are facing may make you feel like a failure but you are not. These issues are simply a "call" to look deeper for what is needed for your continued development, or what Jung calls your individuation. Your unique journey to finding your authentic self.

I am passionate about helping others in processing thoughts/feelings and building a better relationship with themselves.
A person who would benefit from my services may feel anxious or nervous about reaching out to a therapist, as asking for help is a very difficult thing to do. They may struggle with anxiety and depression on a regular basis. They may be unsure about what symptoms they are experiencing, but they just feel "off". This person may or may not have a history of traumatic experiences. This person will likely be seeking a way to organize/experience/work through thoughts and feelings enough to increase their overall health and enjoyment in their lives.

While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
