I have over 35 years of experience working with individuals, couples, and families. Throughout my experience, I have found that, no matter what therapeutic approach is used, the most important and effective factor in therapy is the relationship between the therapist and the client. Many of my clients have expressed appreciation for not feeling judged. I find that listening is critical to helpfulness, but being actively involved through feedback and direction is also extremely important. I generally do not give "advice", but I do explore, with my clients, different options to resolving problems and making progress toward goals.

For 20 years I have had the honor of partnering with people as they work through relationship issues, depression, anxiety, body image concerns, substance abuse issues, grief or trauma.

Life is hard! Relationships are hard! Fighting, arguing, misunderstandings, miscommunications, differences of opinions, betrayals, omissions, lack of boundaries, etc (the list goes on) can cause problems in the best of relationships...I'm here to help figure out where things went off course and help redirect to safer areas. Being married to the same guy for 34+ yrs (WOW!) has had it's challenges, good/bad days and often wonder how we got through everything.
