Developing a deeper awareness of our emotional suffering creates an overall sense of well-being, allowing us to live authentically. With this deeper awareness, we understand the underlying dynamics that keep us stuck. In its very essence, inner work facilitates insight, healing, and transformation, connecting us to our innate wisdom. I work with adults, adolescents, and Highly Sensitive individuals experiencing a wide range of difficulties. I am a certified Quantum Energy Healer (similar to Reiki) as well as a certified Highly Sensitive Person Practitioner (Elaine Aron's certification)

I bring a positive approach to my work with people and believe therapy needs to be practical and strength-focused. Your strengths are key to creating the changes you want. If you are in crisis or struggling, you may not be able to readily identify your strengths right now. Even if you know your strengths it can be hard to see your way clear.

Cultivating meaningful-healthy relationships may be especially difficult when our sense of self is overshadowed by traumatic and emotionally painful experiences. My approach to the therapy process focuses on helping foster your innate strengths and resiliency while exploring your vulnerabilities and concerns. Together we help you build a greater understanding of yourself through healing limiting patterns, fears, and beliefs. In this way, you become rooted in a life grounded in meaning, aliveness, and depth. I believe that building a stronger relationship with yourself can help cultivate healthier relationships with others, making them easier to initiate, maintain, and enjoy.

My approach to psychotherapy is holistic. I not only treat the "tip of the iceberg" problems, but also address the deeper, "bottom of the ocean," issues. I treat the whole person and honor the mind-body-spirit connections, taking into account the client's cultural, religious and ethnic background, ancestry, race and immigration history. I recognize the complexity of each person's history and circumstances and employ a wide variety of techniques to guide my clients in their self-discovery.

Since 1991, I've counseled both those who have been hurting and those who have had healthy lives and wanted more; the juvenile offender and the diplomat; migrants or multi-generational Americans. Each individual was uniquely capable of compassion and love, each had his/her own times of strife, and each was capable of flourishing with warm support and a willing ear. My role is to ensure that the work done in the therapy room endures beyond our time together and fosters resilient, warm, supportive relationships indefinitely. I welcome all wanting to heal...to overcome obstacles to a rich, happy, peaceful, and love-filled life.
