Together, you & I can process life's happenings and work towards your goals one day at a time.
Are you or your loved one feeling overwhelmed and struggling to process a significant health or life event? Perhaps you’ve been asked to make lifestyle changes as a result & don't know where to start. Maybe you're a caregiver looking for a safe space where you can take a moment to breathe, speak freely & feel heard. If any of these relate, please know you don't have to do it alone. Much of my experience is in health care supporting individuals, their caregivers and loved ones. I fully acknowledge the strong impact that new, sudden and chronic health conditions or the loss of a loved one can have on individuals and those around them.

My specialty is working with clients from a holistic perspective to meet them where they are in life.
Don't say it...You are exhausted, right? There doesn't seem to be enough hours in the day to get everything you had intended to do done. On the good days you are walking through a fog and on the not so good ones you call out and binge watch something on tv. Next morning the alarm and you try again. Is this you? My ideal client is someone who wants to fire me. Nothing makes me happier than a check in call from a past client who just wants to check in while things are great, or to work through a bump in the road. It's my goal to get people beyond their current hurdles and back to living their best life.

I don’t have a ‘one size fits all’ approach and feel like it’s integral to meet each client where they are at and to understand them in the context of their life and experiences.
Life often throws curveballs and learning new ways to respond to stress can be one of the most important things we can do. I enjoy building relationships and watching others develop the skills they need to successfully overcome their challenges in life. Therapeutic work can be difficult, but I've found that a good sense of humor can go a long way.

The relationship we have with ourselves sets the bar for all our other relationships, and through our relationships with others, we can heal ourselves if we know how. Together, we’ll develop and use strategies that consider both your strengths and challenges so that you have a real chance of changing the patterns that are no longer serving you. My goal is to walk beside you, and as you point us in a direction, I’ll support you by shining a light on your path. It can feel too hard to take steps when you can’t see what’s ahead- but once you see the terrain clearly, it’s much easier to move through- especially with a trained guide.

Support, encouragement, and motivation to instill change, one step at a time, is something i feel committed to help with as a therapist. Helping to improve mood and overall functioning would be a goal most of us desire to achieve.

I am an interactive therapist, practicing for more than 30 years. My preference is to work with couples helping them understand how "old" dynamics, patterns and behaviors impact their current relationship. And, then to coach them to make positive changes. I have worked quite a bit with couples who have experienced infidelity. I also enjoy working with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression or other concerns helping them with coping strategies. Further, I have had a lot of experience working with healthcare professionals and first responders.

Psicanálise, uma viagem que pode transformar a sua vida! A vida, às vezes, pode ser desafiadora. Como psicanalista tenho ajudado pessoas a superar alguns dos momentos mais difíceis e desafiadores da vida.A terapia psicanalítica pode ser utilizada como uma forma de cuidado psíquico. Ela pode te ajudar a lidar com os desafios do cotidiano, bem como te fortalecer emocionalmente para continuar enfrentando os obstáculos que podem vir a surgir. Com a análise aprende-se a escutar e a nomear o sintoma, que muitas vezes grita e que tende a dilacerar mente e coração. Quando ocorre mudança psíquica acontece a transformação!

Our broad goal––of course––is “the end of unnecessary suffering.” Sound about right? While we all strive for this, I specialize in helping folks with a very-unique kind of suffering: OCD. I can tell you that few people understand the pain and complexity of OCD—(even most therapists). I will listen intently to your unique story. Just know that I can introduce you to an arsenal of tools that can help: mindfulness, ERP (exposure and response prevention) and on and on. Yes, thoughts can be “sticky.” But––with hard work––if (or when) those thoughts come back around…they can be as quiet & as harmless as a yellow post-it.

I am accepting, interactive, and easygoing. I believe in focusing on the current situation in peoples' lives, and explore the past as long as it has a demonstrable benefit for a client's present day functioning. I believe it is important to customize my approach to a client's style, situation, and needs. As much as possible, I draw on a person's emotional and physical "intelligence" to complement his or her cognitive understanding. It is essential that my clients feel in charge of their direction and pacing, and safe enough to take the necessary risks.
