I believe that everyone has inherent strengths that can be illuminated through therapy. My approach is centered on exploring your authenticity, providing space where you can share thoughts and feelings without fear or criticism, and strengthening your understanding of yourself in connection to your community. I enjoy working collaboratively with individuals, looking at cultural/systemic barriers when discussing factors of stress. Folks who tend to find their way into my office are looking to address concerns around their identity, anxiety, depression, life transitions, or a wide spectrum of traumatic experiences.

My specialty areas include parenting, couples, adult individuals and adolescents. I help parents to see the mind behind their child's behaviors and empower them to parent through positive connection while maintaining structure. With couples I focus on fostering greater attunement and communication while also empowering each individual to bring the best part of themselves and advocate for what they desire in the relationship. I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depressed mood, low self-esteem, relationships concerns, life transitions, exploring spirituality and family of origin issues. I also see adolescents experiencing the struggles common to that stage of life.

I hold the conviction that life's obstacles are both unavoidable and commonplace. At times, we require guidance and aid to navigate these periods, discovering the triumph in emerging from them more resilient. I believe that therapy is the way to get the guidance and support needed to navigate these times, opening us up to more satisfying relationships at home, work, and in social situations.

I work as your guide, assisting you in navigating and transforming tragedy, chaos, and challenges into possibility. When life-altering challenges impede your ability to navigate the uncertainties of life, I assist you in addressing the barriers that block your healing. I work with those who have experienced betrayal trauma, those who are struggling with problematic sexual behaviors, and those who are trying to make sense out of the senseless as you reshape and restructure your life. We all need help in moving past anxiety, depression, loss, and making mistakes, that impede our ability to live a healthy life of meaning and purpose.

Taking the step to reach out for therapy, on our own or with a partner/family member, is a brave move. Relationships and life in general can offer great sources of joy as well as frustrations, and when talking with our family and friends, we may edit or limit what we say for fear of judgment, or burdening them. Reflecting and expressing ourselves freely with a neutral, non-judgmental helping professional is an excellent way to increase self awareness and insight about the challenges we encounter, even if we aren’t quite certain what to say.

“People will forget what you said or what you did, but not how you made them feel.” This is a quote I try to live by both as a therapist and in my personal life. Life isn’t always about being the smartest, or the funniest, or the most successful. Being kind towards others often resonates louder and lasts longer. As a therapist, I strive to make sure my clients feel heard and understood. Life often takes unexpected twists and turns, and we can all use an extra ear to listen and help us get back on track. I take a genuine and down to earth approach and I’m ready to join you wherever you are in life.

My ideal client is someone that has an idea of their goals and what they would like to pursue in therapy, but needs the extra insight and encouragement to clarify those goals or to take the first steps in accomplishing them. They may be struggling with mood issues, have trouble controlling their thoughts, or be dealing with difficult or contentious relationships. They are in need of someone to listen to them, to provide empathy and validation, and then to help guide them along the path they have chosen to make the changes they wish to see in their life.

I come to the therapy profession with a PhD in musicology, having spent 20 years working as a music professor, private teacher and professional musician. I find that many of the same skills apply in teaching and in therapy. My approach to therapy focuses on seeing clients not only as individuals but as part of interlocking networks of family, friends, colleagues, organizations, etc. I view much of my work as helping clients to evolve in these networks in ways that support them as individuals and work for their health and, potentially, the health of those around them.

When challenges interrupt life, making it difficult to manage, having a therapist/guide to help you regain your potential gets you where you want to be sooner with greater success. We live in a culture that often encourages us to “just tough it out”. We can begin to believe that asking for help means admitting failure, and we fall further into despair. The truth is the therapy process creates space and time for you to explore what is at the root of those challenges. We will work together to build a genuine therapy relationship that supports your journey toward improved functioning and life satisfaction.
