Life can be so stressful and difficult to manage, especially if you feel anxious, depressed, have suffered a loss or just feel unsatisfied in life. Having these emotions and feelings can impact work, relationships and have you feeling disconnected. Things can get better. I have worked for over 30 years helping people find a “life worth living”, supporting and helping people to learn different ways of thinking and coping. I know you want to feel better and more connected… you deserve it!

Life can feel overwhelming and confusing when we are met with expectations that do not align with authentic self. I believe positive and effective change can happen once we become more confident and empowered within ourselves. I work with individuals to feel confident to make effective change within their life in order meet their personal and therapeutic goals. I primarily work individuals with disrupted attachments related to childhood trauma, and sexual trauma; in addition to PTSD, depression, anxiety, OCD (specifically related to Relationships, Contamination, and Perfectionism), and Borderline Personality Disorder.

If you are searching for a therapist who will patiently but persistently work with you to meet your personal goals, I will do that. Entering therapy does not require full readiness to change; it takes a willingness to explore where life as you live it now might not match the life you want. Therapy is a collaborative process, so we will work together to identify your goals and plot a strategy to arrive there. I am experienced in working with clients from diverse cultural backgrounds, including LGBT.

Sometimes our problems and pain are too much for us to manage on our own. I can help people understand their relationships with others and manage the challenges in their lives. My clients find me easy to talk to: I believe I know when to be quiet and when people need my help to talk about their suffering and struggles. Together my clients and I identify the troublesome patterns in their relationships - professional and personal - and figure out how to change those patterns. Sometimes I am there just to be with people as they acknowledge and bear what cannot be changed.
