I offer a relaxing, nonjudgmental environment where we can begin to develop rapport and build the therapeutic relationship. I am aware that clients have a choice of clinician and without rapport, clients may have a difficult time finding the comfort level needed for personal growth. I provide therapeutic services to adolescents, adults and families who are struggling with anxiety, depression, emotional and behavioral management, relationships, and other related social/emotional issues. In addition, I have extensive experience working with adolescents struggling with issues related to ADHD, Executive Functioning, learning disabilities and related school issues.

Contentment and happiness can often feel elusive in the busy, complicated lives that we lead. Sometimes, understanding the reason for our unhappiness seems just as elusive. The way we feel about our true selves as well as the meaning we give certain events in our lives can effect how we cope with the challenges that come our way. Often, we find ourselves in situations that feel beyond our control to recover from. Deep down, you are resilient, and know life could feel better than it does.

I have been a licensed clinical social worker for over twenty years. I enjoy helping others reach their potential, and I see therapy as a journey. Whether it be short-term or long-term, my ability to build rapport and trust enables my clients to work on their issues openly in a collaborative manner. It is important to know that you are the author of your story and it is equally important to define your goals. My approach is to encourage self-discovery and to help provide other perspectives and coping strategies to enhance your life. It's about skill-building and managing new situations using new coping mechanisms, not old ones.

I have been working with individuals and families for over 12 years.. I have a particular focus in working with teens at risk, in particular teens who self-harm. Since I have additional certifications in family therapy, sex therapy, and divorce mediation, I am also very comfortable working with couples and families in conflict. I have worked extensively with individuals in all decades. I have been trained extensively in Bowenian family therapy, although my approach is flexible. I am becoming trained to be a certified independent college counselor.

I have worked in the human services field for over 20 years and in many different capacities. My work has generally focused on teens and children during transitional points in their lives. I practice with the respect and validation that many children do not get, but need. Working and collaborating with schools and caretakers is a foundation of the work I do along with an expectation of continued contact with both schools and families throughout the work.

Hope is better when it's combined with a plan. If you're having too many fights without resolution, I can help you. I help couples figure out how to resolve stuff once and for all. Even when you're successful in most areas of life, It's hard to be happy when problems are chronically unresolved. It's even worse when the past hangs over the relationship, or you feel like room-mates. If your relationship problems are weighing down your otherwise great life, then counseling can make a big difference.
