I strongly believe that developing a supportive & collaborative relationship with my clients is the basis for the positive change achieved.
I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist. My speciality is CBT for Anxiety & Depression while also using psychodynamic approaches to help understand how our past informs our present experiences. The basis of CBT is to become aware of how our thinking & belief systems can dictate our behavior, which can get in the way of our goals & creating meaningful relationships. I will begin to teach you new coping skills to help you change certain behaviors. Over time & with repetition the hope is that your behavior will begin to shift, as you move closer to attaining your goals & dreams. I look forward to going on this journey with you!

I also help with anxiety, depression, grief/loss, phobias, addictions, worries, feeling stuck or confused, relationship dissatisfaction, loneliness, life transitions, and more.
Here's what I want you to know: You were born ready and able to be happy, and have a satisfying life--that's natures way. And, yet, at any point in life there can be many 'causes & reasons' for life turning in a different direction; and there can be many kinds of 'symptoms & behaviors’ that emerge when things go sideways; and when this occurs, we all can use some support to get back on track. For right now, just know that reaching for support is itself a sign of strength, and is also built into our human nature.

Therefore, I help clients to know and understand those emotions, along with relationship patterns that arise from those emotions, while incorporating tools for managing anxiety.
I have been in practice for over 30 years, helping clients to develop a deeper understanding of themselves and their relationships. Life often challenges our ability to maintain equilibrium. Whether it's in work or love, choices are often linked to experiences or emotions that have not yet come to light. As we reflect on experiences, anxiety is lowered or becomes easier to bear. This leads to a greater ability to meet life goals--when we tolerate anxiety well enough to sort out true needs from a desire to escape a bad feeling, we tend to move toward those goals.

The process of finding that right fit of a therapeutic relationship in which you feel comfortable can be overwhelming. Whether you have a specific issue, or you are experiencing discontentment and are unsure about what needs to change, the experience of psychotherapy can be rich and valuable - something most could benefit from at some point in their lives. I create a welcoming and accepting environment in which you are able to identify what needs to change and work toward solutions using practical strategies to provide coping, understanding of your thought processes and support for whatever you are going through.
