"For over 30 years I have helped clients with anxiety, depression, and relationships, as well as body-image, life transitions, and parenting including prenatal/postpartum issues. When stress, loss, or crisis override your usual coping skills, it can be hard handling the challenges of life. Talking to someone in a safe environment can help to heal and empower you. My approach focuses on listening sensitively so that we can understand what underlying patterns prevent you from fully loving and living. We work together from the foundation of a secure therapeutic relationship to find meaning and make sense of your experience."

"Training and experience do make a difference. My approach is rooted in modern psychodynamic, analytical and addiction research. I use an highly individualized process designed to help you understand yourself so you can grow beyond repetitive patterns. Many of my clients have tried other, more superficial, therapeutic approaches and have been dissatisfied with the results. Clients describe me as thoughtful, challenging, caring, and fun. For clients dealing with addictions, my experience and training allow me to successfully integrate recovery programs with psychodynamic and other approaches creating profound growth that continues long after our work together has a finished."

"Creating a safe environment is where I begin. I see therapy as a collaborative process that can lead you toward a greater capacity for self-awareness, trust, clarity, a sense of meaning and freedom. Life gives us surprising obstacles, which can make us feel stuck, depressed, alone or scared. With therapeutic presence, creativity and guidance, we can change our relationship to obstacles and transform. Our darkest point may mark the moment we realize we want to change. I use yoga and creative writing in my practice, and have training in mindfulness/somatic approaches, gestalt therapy, family systems, DBT, & depth psychology."

"In the past twenty six years of practice, I've come to deeply understand that we become who we are from two sources: our relationships and experiences. The beliefs we hold about our limitations, potential, and life's possibilities spring from our interpretations (and misinterpretations) of life events and from the people surrounding them. I help clients unpack their past and present experiences so they may understand how these are woven together; to heal self-judgements and negative beliefs that come from their past; and create compassionate, loving, and empowered relationship with themselves, and others.
