Life is hard. None of us gets through unscathed. There are journeys to take, decisions to make, losses to endure. Sometimes confusion reigns. Sometimes we get stuck ... at work, within personal relationships, with our children. I am passionate about helping people understand themselves better, and figure out how to face their issues. I believe that problems have their roots in the past, and that uncovering the origins of your feelings will allow the healing to begin. Ultimately, it IS possible to feel stronger, improve your sense of Self, deepen relationships and rediscover your sense of well-being and optimism.
Are you overwhelmed or anxious? Do you worry about losing control? Are you afraid you're turning into your parents? You're not alone. I additionally specialize in working with parents to help them understand normal development, learn parenting tools, and break any cycles of abuse that were once in their families.
I am a psychotherapist with 32 years of experience. I have written a book called "Parenting Pros(e): Poems, Pearls and Pointers for Parents," as well as two original CD's for children. I am gentle and empathic, and primarily work with adults and teens to help them move forward in their lives.
