Looking for a therapist can be overwhelming. My hope is that this will give you an idea of who I am and what it might be like for us to sit together. I have been a therapist for 21 years. What is important to you is important to me. Each session is tailored to your needs. Sometimes you may want more structure or feedback. Sometimes you might just need someone to listen, to witness your pain, and know you were heard. That is how I see my role: to be a human being sitting with another human being offering emotional help, support, & insights. You're not going through this alone.

It's all too much. The never-ending responsibility to care for others at work and meeting your loved one's needs at home is a heavy weight to bear. As a high achiever, you've always been able to take on life's demands. But lately, you're trying to do it all while feeling completely overwhelmed. Overwhelmed with self-doubt, anxiety, and sometimes even feeling debilitated/frozen. At the end of the day, you're disappointed in yourself for being short with others, going through the motions with no real joy, and realizing that none of your own needs were met. You're mentally exhausted, frustrated, & need help getting off this carousel.

We live in stressful times. I meet with clients every day who seek skills and strategies for managing the pressures of their personal, family, and work lives. Increasingly, I hear from clients asking for support in their efforts to cope with larger scale problems; they worry about COVID, the environment, political and racial polarization, war, the economy, and more. Many clients recognize that symptoms of anxiety, depression, physical ailments and relationship problems are rooted in or worsened by the stress in their lives. Clients often feel overwhelmed or burnt out. They want to feel energized, connected, loving and joyful.
