My four decades of practice has shown that no matter what brings you to counseling, every person wants to live in consistent positive feelings – comfortable in their own skin and enjoying life – able to navigate the ups and downs with resilience and effectiveness – able to solve the problems they face and move forward. This is the focus of my sessions – tailored to your specific situation and needs. Sessions are comfortable and informal. I can help nearly every client I see because I know all people have innate mental wellbeing and the ability to connect to it in a simple way that deepens and endures. Let’s chat.

Difficulties with mood (Anxiety/Depression) focus or attention? Is your child demonstrating oppositional behaviors? Facing challenges in school either academically or socially? These are just a few of the many clinical presentations I work with regularly. My emphasis is on building a collaborative approach with my clients and their support systems to help identify and put into practice positive coping strategies to manage the stress and challenges that life sometimes presents.

I absolutely adore working with people who are ready to face the things in life keeping them stuck and walking alongside them in the journey of getting to where they want to be. Whether it's interpersonal challenges with friends, family, or partners, professional transitions, identity shifts, or anything in between, I'm here for it! My ideal client is someone who is excited (even if a little nervous..) about the journey of therapy, regardless of why they are starting or re-starting, and are open to direct and honest conversation, practicing skills between sessions, and doing the incredible work of shifting toward intentional living.

CASE LOAD CURRENTLY FULL Most clients come to me by word-of-mouth referrals, but I periodically take on new clients if they are a good fit. My client base is roughly 70% female-identifying and 30% male-identifying, and I respect each client's journey in an allied way. While I have a broad range of experience working with people across the lifespan, what I most enjoy is working with high-achieving adults in the first half of life. I view therapy as an opportunity to grow and evolve, while also mastering the ability to be fully present, whether you are looking for your calling, embodying your identity, or preparing for your next step.

Therapy is all about the engagement and relationship with my client. There needs to be a mutual trust and open dialogue in each session. I will provide a non-judgmental environment to explore difficult relationships and other areas of life. I believe in the power of language - the words you choose reflect how others will perceive you, and more importantly how you perceive yourself. We will explore and recognize how the process impacts the content of our lives. I utilize a narrative, CBT and existential therapeutic approach and when necessary, explore how the givens of our existence impact our daily lives.
