I am eclectic in my approach to therapy, meaning that I employ a variety of techniques depending upon the issues being addressed.
Initially, people may feel reluctant to seek out therapy to address their concerns. They may worry that it is a sign of weakness, and that they're the only ones dealing with issues. This is not true, the fact that you're seeking out therapy is a sign of strength and maturity. I am compassionate and laid back, which typically makes it easier for client's to engage in the therapeutic process. I strongly believe in establishing a collaborative relationship with my clients, so that we can discover your concerns, set goals, develop treatment plans, and empower you.

I will draw upon my 35+ years experience to listen deeply to your life experience and apply an eclectic integration of solution focused, mindfulness-cognitive, psychodynamic, family systems, and trauma informed therapies to guide our sessions.
Suffering is an inevitable part of the human experience. Grief, loss, anxiety, worry, depression, relationship and career challenges are some of the most common ways suffering appears in our life. When we transform suffering, we find the beauty of what it has to teach us. As the poet Rumi said, “the cure is in the pain”. Quite often, it is our pain or difficulties that reveals to us the wisdom we need to live our best life. I would like to assist you on this journey of self discovery, to move thru the discomfort, cultivate compassionate insight, find solutions, and to set a course to meet your goals and live your dreams.

I work with clients with a broad range of issues, and intervene with eclectic, appropriate, and flexible strategies.
Stress is a natural reaction to challenges with work, school, relationships and loss. When sadness, worry, concentration problems, or other disruptions result, talking to a trained professional often helps. Foremost in my philosophy is that people are fundamentally good and have the natural ability to grow toward their fullest potential. An objective, trained professional can often provide a catalyst for successful adaptation to life's challenges. It is a privilege, honor, and responsibility to work with others toward their personal goals of enhancing health, productivity, and the enjoyment of life!

I help people enjoy life more instead of trying to be everything for everybody. This means reducing distractions, setting healthy boundaries and tuning into what's most important to you. We may have learned from a young age to put the needs of others over our own or experienced trauma, abandonment or other stressful experiences growing up. Connecting with and healing our inner child can bring surprising results. Giving that vulnerable part of us permission to make different choices, to do what makes us happy is sometimes all that is needed. I facilitate this deep inner work through hypnotherapy and guided meditative techniques.
