Relationship issues, difficulty achieving your goals and getting your needs met, and dealing with life in general can be hard. If you are feeling anxious, depressed, often exhausted and overwhelmed, stressed by the pressures in your life, relief is possible. With over 25 years experience as a therapist, I can offer a therapeutic atmosphere that is supportive and empowering so that you can achieve your goals. Together, we can make that happen. Resolving those issues is an important and worthwhile pursuit that often leads to a higher level of satisfaction and enjoyment in life. If that is your goal I'd like to help.
I've had extensive experience in the treatment of relationship issues, stress management, transition difficulties, women’s issues, grief, substance abuse, lesbian/gay/bisexual/queer issues, codependency, parenting issues, as well as anxiety, depression, and other issues.
My treatment style combines client-centered psychotherapy, psychodynamic psychotherapy, mindfulness, cognitive/behavioral, and sometimes EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), depending on several factors, including the client's interest.
