My private practice concentrates with children, teenagers and adults, using the strengths perspective, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and the Nurtured Heart Approach (NHA).
My passion, since I was a child, has always been with working with people of all ages, and helping them form healthy relationships with themselves and others. While I have spent years working with emotionally challenged children, tired and exhausted parents, at risk teenagers in both the UK as well as in the US, my goal is to continue providing supportive and therapeutic approaches while also teaching skills and strategies to deal with pressure and stressful situations in life.

You woke up again only to realize your person is gone. Just like that. They are no longer here. Is it even possible to go on without them? The ache in your chest is too much to bear. The tears either won’t stop flowing or they don’t even come. It feels like you’re stuck in a rip current. You see the shore, find some relief, and then the wave slaps you in the face and again you are being dragged under. It’s unfair. It’s gut-wrenching. It just SUCKS! Life doesn’t have the same excitement it once did, and you wonder if it ever will again.

For 20+ years, I have enjoyed working with a diverse population of all ages from a variety of backgrounds. My clients have shaped how I practice. I work from a cognitive behavioral, solution-focused, trauma-informed foundation. I help clients develop and integrate new patterns into their lives that can bring them out of crisis, enhance their lives, and help them transition into their 'new normal'. I encourage clients to focus on what they can control, to activate in positive ways, and to problem solve. I'm chronically optimistic, and like to integrate humor and fun into sessions.
