I work with children, adolescents, and adults. I believe in treating the whole person, and I work closely with other professionals as needed in order to help clients with difficulties in both mind (motivation, depression, stress management, anxiety, learning disabilities) and body (autoimmune disorders, chronic/complex pain, cancer). I am particularly interested in helping clients who are coping with multiple stressors (e.g., relationship problems, career issues, health concerns, trauma). I believe it is essential that each client's treatment strategy is tailored specifically to his or her needs, style of interaction, and ability to work toward specific goals.

You know you could do more, be more, but there just isn't enough time in the day or gas left in the tank to go the extra mile. You're always there for others, but not for you. Depression and anxiety have caused you to feel like you don’t have enough to give. Medication doesn't seem to help, at least not enough to actually feel well.

Feeling like a mere shadow of who you used to be, just going through the motions? The constant pretending and performing is draining. You've faced some tough challenges—it's overwhelming. You want to feel good again, without those past struggles constantly resurfacing. So, you put on a brave face, trying to be the person everyone expects you to be. But your relationships are shaky, and it’s frustrating when you lose your temper with someone you care about or can’t accomplish what you want to. You're worried others will grow tired of dealing with all your trauma. You're out of ideas on how to turn things around.

Are you feeling hopeless, anxious, depressed, and overwhelmed? Have you been reacting to life in ways that you are not proud of or not really who you remember yourself being? Do you come home every night and say to yourself… “it’s okay, I’ll just have one to take the edge off,” but you find yourself through the whole bottle. At first it started with decompressing after a hard day at work, but now it’s become a habit that you can't break. Numbing out has just become part of your daily life. You're ashamed of the ways you cope and it feels like no one understands.

Humanistic Therapists
How does humanistic therapy work?
One tenet of humanistic therapy is that people are good. The humanistic approach is concerned with a person’s ability to accept oneself. It likewise encourages a person to overcome self-criticism and self-defeating tendencies, as well as disapproval from others. This approach also emphasizes self-actualization and treating an individual as a whole person. A foundation of this therapy type: The patient is the expert in their life, and treatment often takes the individual’s lead.
Is humanistic therapy evidence-based?
Humanistic therapy is an evidence-based practice. Research has found that humanistic therapy can lead to significant improvement, and for some people it can be just as effective as other therapies, such as Cognitive behavioral therapy. The benefits of humanistic therapy are enduring.
How long does humanistic therapy last?
The goal of humanistic therapy is to understand a person’s day-to-day experiences. While sessions can be short-term and last over a few months, therapy can sometimes continue beyond that and last up to a year or more. And because patients learn the theory behind humanistic therapy during treatment, they can also practice its tenets throughout life after therapy sessions have been completed.
Is humanistic therapy effective?
According to research, many patients find success with humanistic therapy. Researchers note that the therapy is particularly useful in addressing poor self-esteem and self-sabotage, as well as improving conditions including anxiety and depression. Improvements in problem areas can be long standing, as individuals can continue working on themselves by using the tools they’ve learned during treatment.
