TELETHERAPY SESSIONS AVAILABLE. I enjoy working with all types of people, but I find the clients I am most successful with are those who are willing to look beneath the surface of the issue that brought them to me. So often the "problems" we experience are connected to so many different situations or experiences in our lives, that it can be difficult to determine how best to handle them. I truly enjoy assisting others in this process and find that most people have exactly the solutions and resources they need to successfully manage their lives, but that they sometimes need help finding them.

Everyone experiences times in their lives when they feel stuck. Maybe you are struggling with anxiety, awake at night worried about the future and paralyzed during the day, unable to take the steps you think might make things better. Or, maybe you are struggling with relationships in your life: a partner, children, friends or colleagues. You aren’t feeling heard or valued and you worry about where things are headed. Or, perhaps you are living with the effects of a trauma that has long since passed but seems to be with you every day. In any case, you don’t want things to continue like this. Something has to change.
