Your therapy is your journey of self-discovery to enable you to make informed decisions, to re-educate yourself, and even to re-parent yourself. It is similar to mountain climbing where a guide is exceedingly helpful. A therapist is like a Sherpa; he carries what may be too heavy to carry, sometimes he walks ahead to clear the path but often he follows your lead, after all it is your journey. When you are on your journey and you feel the need for a guide, a Sherpa to facilitate your journey, I may be of assistance.

None of us enter this world with a User's Manual. When something goes wrong in our lives, where can we turn for help? I sometimes think of psychotherapy as an IT helpdesk for mental health related "technical problems." My approach is kind and gentle; only in a warm and safe environment are we free explore our problems and develop solutions.

I specialize in helping families heal their issues and relationships. I also work with teenage clients who are experiencing anxiety and need coping strategies. I listen carefully to my clients to understand what they are saying, not only on a conscious level, but on a subconscious level. In that way, I get a deeper understanding of what they actually want and what they need, and why.

As a licensed therapist, I am trained to deal with a wide range of issues that affect one's relationship with self and others, but I have special training in assisting individuals, couples and families to adjust to change and to reclaim their lives following an unexpected event whether the event is recent or occurred many years ago. Reclaiming your life involves imagining and taking action on what comes next so I look to you to define how life would look at its most optimum and focus on goals that will bring that vision into being.
