I enjoy helping clients identify their unique strengths and gifts and develop the skills to lead a happier and more fulfilling life. Are you having difficulty with personal and/or professional relationships? Maybe you've achieved a great deal professionally or financially but are still dissatisfied with your life? Are you struggling with identity issues? Do you find yourself feeling emotional for no reason? Unsure about the path your life has taken? Perhaps you are struggling with parenting issues and not feeling up to the task. I have helped many clients overcome the above and other issues over the years.

Trying to find the right counselor or therapist during challenging times can be overwhelming. I assist individuals, couples, and families to understand what type of therapist will be most helpful for them. I then match them with a licensed counselor/therapist in my referral network that has expertise in their problem area and is a good fit for their personality and therapeutic needs. In addition to referrals, I provide ongoing counseling for individuals experiencing life transitions and emotional adjustments, as well as unresolved past or recent trauma.

"A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step." Ancient Chinese philosopher, Lao-Tzu. Let's face it: asking for help isn't always easy, but you've taken the courage to do so. Therapy is an exciting experience of self-discovery! As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I work with adults, individually or as couples. I use a bilateral approach, incorporating a Strength-based practice with a focus on the mind/body connection, in particular Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT). I assist clients in noticing, when automatic processes are occurring & to alter their reaction to be more of a reflection.

I use a collaborative model, where sessions feel like two people having a conversation in my living room, versus a stereotypical doctor/patient interaction. I don't view your issues as coming from an abnormal psychopathology, but instead as a reaction to living in a stressful, complex, and contradictory world. I seek to understand your issues in the context of your unique experience rather than viewing you as having something wrong or being broken. My focus is on what you need from me....I take my lead from you.

Our life's work is helping clients achieve a better sense of self and happiness...more recently we've recognized that without good mental health providers, finding this balance in life can be more difficult and stressful. As a result, we tend toward an Integrative approach and help our clients transform into the people they want to be. We see each client as an individual with many parts to their identity. Utilizing a holistic and systemic approach we help clients reintegrate the parts of themselves to function better as individuals and within their systems. Our focus tends toward a systems based approach using behavior methods.

Relationship issues can hijack your life. Dysfunctional romantic and family relationships, demanding bosses, inappropriate coworkers, weird friends, or complicated roommates can all be the kinds of relationships that isolate us; affect our sleep, appetites, and focus; and stir up BIG feelings. Breaking up, even if it's the right thing to do, can turn our lives upside down while we feel pressure on us to “just move on already,” when we are grieving. Sometimes we are having a hard time grieving loved ones who have died. Difficult relationships can also cause collateral damage to your relationship with yourself.
