What is holding you back from achieving your greatest potential? Is it fear? A major life change that you are having difficulty adjusting to? Unhealthy relationships? Perhaps you are feeling in a rut and are not sure why or maybe you feel paralyzed by anxiety. We ALL struggle with these things from time to time. Some struggle silently. The courageous ask for help. I would feel honored to get to know you and to help you reach a better place in your life.

I enjoy working with people struggling with any type of relationship. I specialize in married couples that are facing mid-life doldrums, empty-nest syndrome or general disillusionment with the marriage bond. Marriage and relationships are not the fairy tales we heard as children, or the romantic comedies we see in theaters. I help clients understand what their expectations are of their relationship and sex life, as well as what each couple can do to make the most of all aspects of their relationship. Whether your relationship needs a tune-up or a complete overhaul, I look forward to working with you.

My experience as a therapist for over two decades has shown me that we have been programed through the hormones of stress and traumas to repeat the same thoughts, feelings and behaviors. Without changing and deprogramming from the inside out our lives and our relationships become dysfunctional and problematic. If you ever asked yourself if you may be narcissistic or someone might suggest that you are it's possible that your thoughts and behaviors become harmful to yourself and others. If you've ever thought that depression and anxiety have taken a real life than you have been programmed through the hormones of stress.

My passion is helping people to create and live their best life. I believe that values, acceptance, compassion, and forgiveness are the keys to leading a meaningful life while managing life’s curveballs. While I will approach our work together with genuine care and unconditional acceptance, I also believe that being able to explore a different way of seeing things is helpful. My own life experiences help me to relate to people at all life stages including early adulthood, parenting, divorce and starting over and the changes associated with transition to retirement. Together we can utilize your strengths to find your best self.
