Are you dealing with a lot right now and feeling overwhelmed? I can help. I use proven tools and techniques that can really make a positive difference in your life - so you can stress less and feel more joy. As a psychotherapist, I'm trained to assist people with a wide range of life issues. My specialty is helping people cope with the tough stuff of life by providing emotional support, proven solutions and helpful coping skills as well as stress management/relaxation training to reduce the negative effects of stress on their lives and health..
Another area of expertise is helping people to deal well with change (having a child, loss of a loved one or pet, a new job or a divorce). I am a published researcher on the topic of change and I'm passionate about helping people navigate these changes in a healthy way.
As a licensed psychotherapist I hold a Masters Degree in Counseling Psychology which means I have the training and expertise to really help. My clients describe me as warm, 'not too serious' and non-judgmental. I am here to help...just give me a call and you can decide if you feel we are "a fit". No obligation, I just want you to get started!
