My therapeutic approach involves “meeting the person where they are.” I am committed to helping clients understand their life challenges and assisting them in working toward reducing or resolving their internal or external challenges. I believe that treatment is successful when clients have an active role in developing their treatment goals. I provide services using a holistic approach throughout the entire treatment process. All treatment modalities are tailored to address the mind, body, and spirit. My integrative treatment philosophy considers the client’s biological, psychological, emotional, spiritual, and social needs.

Being a person in the world today is more challenging than it has ever been. Sometimes we carry habits and beliefs into adulthood that can make it even harder to live well. As we go through life we develop skills and interpret information in ways that help us to survive and cope with our environment. It is the brain's way of protecting us and preventing future pain. None of us are broken, but we may be applying skills and information in the present that are no longer helpful or relevant. I believe that developing awareness and understanding of these core beliefs and instincts is the first step toward healing and creating lasting

There are times in each of our lives that we need someone to talk to, someone who will listen in a non-judgmental way to our thoughts, feelings, and our struggles; someone who will help us hear our inner wisdom to find the solutions we need to live healthy, whole, meaningful lives; someone who can offer guidance and teach us the life skills we need to face and work through our life issues, who can help us see ourselves in a realistic, compassionate way. Those are the things I am committed to providing my clients as we work together.

If your life and relationships aren't going the way you'd like, if your marriage feels painful, if you're at your wit's end with your children's behavior, if you want to do things differently but feel stuck- I'd like to help. Anxiety, depression, self-esteem, intimacy, personal boundaries, parenting issues, divorce and its impact on the children- all of these can be overwhelming and difficult to navigate well. I work with children and families (ages 5+), parents, adult men, and couples.

From the first session, I encourage hope and inner strength in all of my clients. It is my view that all individuals have good qualities, the capability to do well, and have the desire to make changes in their lives. In addition, I believe that negative thinking has a strong effect on people's behaviors and that if they can shift their thinking in a positive manner, they will be motivated and drawn to more pleasant outcomes. I have conducted individual, family, and group therapy in areas such as major life changes, depression, anxiety, and teen issues.

Our wounds are the very place where meaningful wholeness and growth can begin. In over 30 years of private practice with individuals, couples and families, I have engaged deeply in the varied ways people set out to heal. Families in crisis appreciate the active way I connect with and engage all parties in the process of change. Helping couples learn to listen with curiosity rather than react in the "same old way", more deeply understand each other, reach forgiveness or acceptance, and open up possibilities regarding desire and intimacy are all strengths in my work.
