I also conduct evaluations for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) for children, adolescents, and adults.
I've worked in the mental health field since 1980. I look at therapy as a collaborative enterprise between client and therapist, with the aim of improving quality of life. I value a gentle, accepting way of looking at life problems, with an emphasis on understanding, rather than judging or condemning, oneself and others. I value curiosity as a valuable asset in the therapeutic process and I enjoy working with clients who can be curious about themselves and their lives. I work with the client to identify new skills, behaviors, or attitudes that can facilitate desired changes.

I have experience, and work with, all kinds of teens, adults, couples, and families.
I am passionate about walking with, and supporting folks who, despite their successes, are confused by their lack of true joy or meaning in this life. So many of us wrestle with feeling deeply unfulfilled and real difficulty finding lasting and nourishing connection with others. Far too many of us then struggle privately, which rarely leads to less struggle. My mission is to create a space that feels safe and accepting where your individual struggle can be seen, accepted, understood, and worked out in a way that brings you a sense of peace.

I work with adults across the lifespan with diverse backgrounds.
You feel stuck in a situation you don't understand and want to create change. You are not broken. You feel tired, frustrated, sad, and overwhelmed. Life didn’t come with an instruction manual and you’ve done your very best to make it work. Relationships feel lonely and impossible. The job feels unsatisfying and a waste of your time and talents. The road ahead feels uncertain. I work with you to unpack and examine the challenges you face in life, work, or love so that you can live your life with peace, grace, and deeper meaning.

I love working with college age/young adults, and adults. At times, school, home life, and transitions to college or living on your own can be tough to navigate. Life can become overwhelming and we lose insight into our abilities to problem solve, stay organized, and cope with stress, anxiety, or depression. I want to work with you to improve your executive functioning skills, find and use your strengths, increase your self-esteem, re-develop and create new coping strategies, and utilize the resources and connections in your community so you feel supported and in control.
