I specialize in working with children experiencing problems like divorce, loss, anxiety and ADHD.
I have a passion for helping people of all ages improve their relationships, develop healthy coping skills and heal from relational injuries or trauma. In a safe and accepting environment we explore and understand the things that are not working well for you. There is always a reason for people's choices and behaviors, even those that cause significant problems. Once you understand the reason behind the behavior you can begin to make changes and adopt new healthier ways of living. I walk alongside and encourage you in this often difficult, but rewarding process.

I am a postpartum support professional with a passion for working with women and their families as they navigate infertility, difficult pregnancies, pregnancy loss, child loss, birth trauma and perinatal mood disorders.
Therapy is one of the most valuable measures of self-care one can take to live a well-balanced life. I am honored to support my clients as they navigate rocky or unfamiliar waters during periods of adjustment, anxiety and depression. These seasons of our lives can feel unsettling and cause us to feel “stuck” in an unpleasant place. Fortunately, they also present us with the opportunity for growth toward a more rewarding life. Unveiling anxiety, depression, unsettling thoughts, insecurities, trauma and disappointment requires courage- I commend you for taking this first step!

As a clinician with over 12 years post-graduate experience, I have found the greatest indicator of therapeutic success to be the relationship between the therapist and client. My goal is to create a safe and supportive environment where we can collaborate together on a treatment plan. While I have extensive experience treating Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Anxiety, Depression, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder and Anger Management, I also have a specifc interest in working with people to adjust to transitions in their lives such as coping with infertility, grief, aging, divorce, chronic illness and parenting concerns.

These include: mood, anxiety and personality disorders, Issues surrounding grief and loss, and disorders of infancy and early childhood (ADHD, attachment disorders, acting-out behaviors, separation anxiety and sleep disorders).
I enjoy connecting with my clients and working collaboratively with them to create positive change. I strongly believe that no one is "too far gone", "too damaged", or "beyond help". All individuals have an innate ability to self-right, heal, change, grow and thrive, which starts from the inside out. Sometimes this is difficult to foster, but that does not mean it cannot be done. You have already begun your journey by visiting this page. In my practice, I utilize a caring, holistic, client-centered approach tailoring treatment specifically to each individual, as one size does not fit all.

I have been in practice since 1990 working with a very diverse group of clients who have a variety of issues: dating and relationships, infidelity and divorce, sexual identity, coming out, self-esteem, gay, lesbian and bisexual issues; relationship conflict and communication, anxiety, loss and depression, guilt, shame and religion, and ACOA issues.
Life can be a struggle. There are likely times when you likely don't know where to turn to sort things out. Perhaps it's a relationship or your work or an issue with family or just a feeling of being completely alone in whatever you are facing. Talking to someone who really listens to you and won't judge you can be very therapeutic. My style is to listen well, ask the questions that you might not have thought of asking, offer you different perspectives about your issues, and help you identify as many options as possible to find resolution and wholeness. I'm here to help you with that process.

Transitions are, by their very nature, difficult. Adjusting to any life change requires continued growth, self-development and a balance between one's inner strength and external resources. I assist adults (as well as senior citizens) to create a meaningful existence in the social and environmental contexts of their lives. I use cognitive behavioral methods to help my clients successfully cope with a broad spectrum of stressors and personal life challenges related to major life events--career change, retirement, divorce or the death of a loved one.

I can offer 25+ years of full time experience in the treatment of trauma, depression, loss, couple or family conflict, divorce, anxiety, issues related to family wealth and legacy planning.
Why do people seek therapy? Either something has just happened or something KEEPS happening...We usually know when we need to talk to someone professionally, but sometimes we resist reaching out; pride, shame, family beliefs can postpone this call. I encourage this first step, interview your therapist and find the person best suited for you.
