Skilled counseling for first responders & therapists. I help the helpers, like you. Whether you sit with clients all day or are helping people in medical emergencies, your work is hard to leave at work. First responders: your jobs are so high-pressure that most people can’t imagine what you see and do in a day. The shifts are long & hard, your sleep is out of whack, and your spouse complains that you’re more distant and moody all the time. You haven’t felt like yourself in a while, and “sucking it up” is sucking the life out of you. You miss that easygoing person you used to be...and you want to feel in control of your life again.

In counseling, I will listen and support you throughout the depths of your personal winter and will help you find the invincible summer that lies within.

“We all struggle with lives challenges and know where we would like to be, we sometimes just need a road map and a little assistance to get there. My goal is to help people imagine the future they want to create and then develop a series of realistic steps to help them get there. I focus on finding acceptance to problems rather than focusing on the problems themselves in order to move forward to solutions. I can help you identify the skills you need to make changes in your life and reach your goals. I strive to treat a variety of mental health and personality disorders, improve relationship issues, and empower victims of crime.”

Do you ever think, "why is it so hard to get along?" Do you wonder why love doesn't seem to be enough to stop the fighting? Do you end up fighting and arguing when you're just trying to discuss things? Do you ever wonder why you just can't seem to understand each other? Do you wake up in the middle of the night thinking, "I can't do this anymore! I hate this! Why is this relationship so hard?!? There must be a better way!"

I am often asked: “What is the focus and specialty of your psychotherapy practice?” And my sincere, honest answer is that “people are people, and pain is pain; and to the best of my ability, I listen and try to understand past and present circumstances that brought you to therapy.” Some of the reasons that brought you to therapy you already know. But some aspects of that pain are hidden and not yet known, what psychoanalysis describes as the unconscious. This unconscious pain, thoughts, beliefs show themselves in dreams and fantasies and in your daily life. Understanding them will enrich your self-understanding.

Facing life challenges can be difficult and overly stressful at times. These difficulties can affect all aspects of one's life causing emotional, social, vocational and relational problems. Day to day functioning may also be impacted resulting in more stress and struggles. Suffering from emotional distress and mental anguish can be just as painful as any physical ailment.

As a therapist I have a longstanding interest in helping clients heal their psychological issues against the background of their faith orientation. I graduated from Fuller Theological Seminary where integration of faith and psychology is primary and I continue to read a diverse number of classics in spiritual and theological literature. I am an Oblate at St. Andrew's Abbey a Catholic Benedictine Monastery. I have experience with clients from protestant, orthodox, Jewish, Christian and Roman Catholic denominations. I am familiar with issues facing pastors priests and religious. I also run a spiritual growth group on Tuesday nights.

I am an energetic, contentedly divorced woman in my early 60's who knows how hard it can be to feel comfortable telling a total stranger about personal concerns. I value your trust in my professional intention to help you feel better about yourself and your life, to move beyond "just getting through each day". So much of our inability to enjoy ourselves, to find fulfillment in our daily lives, is due to fear, shame, and/or challenges in "letting go" when faced with loss (whether it be a relationship, job, or a loved one's death). I believe every client who seeks therapy is courageous and has many, often undiscovered, strengths.

Our early relationships help define us, but if these experiences were painful whom can we trust? I specialize in working with personality-disordered clients and clients from difficult, abusive or critical backgrounds; and helping them to discover themselves beyond their anxiety, anger, perfectionism, codependent, toxic or overwhelming relationships.
We do not seek a therapist because we are crazy, sick or broken; we seek help when our challenges outstrip our ability to cope. You may want to change, but feel locked into old behaviors and patterns. In therapy, you take a journey into yourself. I serve as a guide, pointing out areas of interest; highlighting new perspectives and helping you make your own choices along the way. I help carry the burden until you are strong enough to carry it yourself or discover that there is no burden left.
