Therapists in Venice, FL

I believe that every person has intrinsic value and thus should be treated with great respect and positive regard. My overall approach is based on this premise and this attitude is maintained throughout therapy. My approach is direct, open, and relational. I do not hesitate to offer concrete direction once trust has been earned. I consider the "whole" person in developing a treatment plan, which to me includes their personal and family history, physical and emotional health, and current relationship support. I believe that the best therapy leads the client (both individuals and couples) towards increased well being.

I work with those struggling with anxiety, depression, addiction, sexuality, trauma, and relational issues. I focus on teaching clients the skills needed to identify unhealthy patterns of living and interacting which include but are not limited to identifying negative and destructive thoughts, feelings, and behaviors present in their daily lives.

Are you wishing for better relationships? Feeling anxious, down, lost, or wondering about the meaning of life? Would you like to feel more confident? Hoping to heal after trauma? Going through loss or life transition? We need lots of self-compassion so we can heal and find a better approach to our lives and relationships. I offer a non-judgmental space to be open about your struggles and explore what it means to live in your values. It is through our common humanity that I relate to my clients. I believe the struggles we face also occur in the systems of race, class, gender, sexuality, age, ability, religion, and national identity.

Do you have issues in your relationship? Feeling stuck, unhappy,​ and unsure of what steps to take to resolve those challenges? Do you find it difficult to be intimate with your partner? Afraid to be honest about your needs and feelings or worried about the future of your relationship? Contact me and we will work together to explore your emotions, identify the problem, and develop a strategic plan for change.

Life can be a roller coaster. It takes us high with the birth of a child, falling in love, or reaching new goals. It may drop us low mourning a death, suffering abuse, grappling with sexual issues, feeling isolated. Sometimes we feel stuck with no hope on the horizon. You are unique but not alone. Whatever your struggles might be, fighting these battles on your own can be difficult, painful and overwhelming. Your struggles are your journey and sometimes it feels like that road comes to a dead end. Because each journey is unique, I use an integration of therapies to seek other inroads into your healing. One size does not fit all.
