Life is consistently challenging all of us in a variety of ways.

I pride myself in creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space that allows clients to freely, and confidentially explore their struggles.

Treatment Philosophy “The nice thing about things that are urgent is that if you wait long enough they aren’t urgent anymore.” --Dr. Amos Tversky The demands of modern society have created an environment in which every moment of every day seems to be urgent. This constant sense of urgency leads to stress, which in turn makes you feel overwhelmed and unfulfilled. You may feel like each day is no more than a series of crises and that you can’t keep up with everything. Finding your way out of this loop requires stepping outside of your daily routine and figuring out what really matters to you.

Choosing to engage in a therapeutic relationship will help to enhance understanding of self, others and your environment. I believe that everyone possesses the ability and knowledge to create a fulfilling and peaceful life.

I work best with clients that are collaborative and engaged in the process of understanding and healing.
