During my forty years in the field I am continually amazed at the power of human connection. My goal as a psychotherapist is to enable each individual that I work with to experience their most empowered, real and authentic self in the here and now.

My commitment to my clients is to have available as many options as possible so no matter what the presenting issue, I will have the skills needed.

Feeling a sense of belonging is crucial to mental health. You want to feel like you matter to your community, your loved ones, and yourself.

If you are feeling overwhelmed, depressed, or unable to feel control over your life, you are not alone. I believe most people at some time in their life are in need of support and guidance through difficult periods. Throughout the therapeutic process, it is important to me to establish a good foundation and relationship with my clients in order to share a bond of trust and acceptance. Throughout our journey, I incorporate skills which help my clients to understand themselves better, as well as give them coping strategies for relief along the way.

Relationships can be messy and sometimes lead to emotional, mental and behavioral issues. At the same time, relationships can also be a source of healing which is why a therapeutic relationship can help in overcoming these difficulties. I have extensive experience working with individuals (both adolescent and adult) and assisting couples and families with relational conflicts. I enjoy helping others gain insight to the causes of their struggles and empowering them to learn to cope with, accept and work through life struggles that would otherwise seem overwhelming and out of their control.

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.

Do you feel stuck in the same pattern of conflict and wish for better communication with the important people in your life? Do you want to deepen connection with yourself and others? Do you need to find ways to set boundaries with those around you? A supportive, collaborative, and safe therapeutic relationship can help you work through all of the above, and more.
