Living a life of peace, free from chaos and dis-ease is what most people strive for. But often we are confronted with anxiety, depression, mood shifts, trauma, stress, anger, grief, isolation, etc. My goal is to help you to restore health and well-being. There are some circumstances of the past that cannot be changed but improving your understanding of past events will help as we work together to create a better present (the here and now), that will lead to a better future.

I am dedicated to utilizing my extensive experience and education to assist individuals and families in promoting growth and self-understanding in their mental health. My goal is to help manage day-to-day life challenges and navigate life transitions. These transitions—whether for older adults facing significant life changes, young adults moving from college into the workforce, or adolescents transitioning from high school to college—can be daunting and anxiety-inducing. They often bring feelings of being stuck, fears of the unknown, and issues related to separation from family and friends.

You may be transitioning from the working world to retirement and wondering if you have made meaningful contributions. You are ready to examine yourself authentically, building a less chaotic life through psychotherapy.

NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS AT THIS TIME All of us at times find ourselves overwhelmed by problems that we struggle to cope with on our own, whether around difficult relationships, life transitions, family stress, disruptive traumatic memories, or a sense of isolation or despair. My goal is to help my clients better recognize and understand their feelings, thoughts and behaviors and to mobilize their own innate strengths to reduce suffering, create positive change, and feel stronger and more connected.

Depression, anxiety, relationship conflicts, loneliness, life changes, indecision, performance issues, impulsivity . . . we all struggle with something; it's part of being human. And at times, it's more than we can manage on our own. Psychotherapy can help. My passion is to collaborate with you to discover what is troubling you, to support you in realizing the life you envision, and begin functioning at the highest level possible, both personally and professionally.

As an experienced therapist, I have worked with clients dealing with adoption and attachment issues, ADHD, depression, anxiety and phobias. One of my goals is to help adults and teens achieve a more positive and satisfying life by working together to identify and clarify issues that are having a negative impact. This allows them to move forward and formulate practical and effective solutions. In addition, I use play therapy to help children express feelings that can be difficult to verbalize.
