Therapists in Asheville, NC
Most patients come to me suffering with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, anger, and loneliness.
My ideal client is one who is interested in finding happiness in love, work and community. My reward during my 30 years in practice is to experience, with individuals and couples, their growth towards these goals. Years in private practice and a major medical setting in New York have given me a broad background in helping people cope with the many challenges life hands them and to help them regain their feelings of hope. Additional focus is placed on life transitions including divorce, retirement, and bereavement. Additionally, I offer guidance in helping your children and teens navigate those challenging years.

My specialities include anxiety, healthy and unhealthy relationships, sexual health, sexual assault survivors, teen issues, parenting, divorce, LGBTQIA+ identity, ADHD, impulsivity, internet/porn/sex addiction, children of alcoholics/addicts and interpersonal and social skill development.
I foster a warm, connected therapeutic environment in order for us to do important work together. I will be non-judgmental, empathetic, humorous and tough-loving, and I'll ask you to be courageous, vulnerable and curious about your thoughts and behaviors. We will create insights, change habits, confront fears and self-defeating choices, and strengthen your relationship with yourself and others. You get to decide what to explore and how quickly or slowly you want to make changes towards the most authentic version of yourself. You can utilize talk therapy, craft therapy, and nature therapy.

I've worked with depression, anxiety, trauma/abuse, relationship/family issues, grief, self-esteem, sexuality, identity, and other issues.
It takes strength, courage and determination to seek help. People come to therapy because they want something to change and want to better understand themselves, their relationships, and the world around them. Human beings possess amazing resilience, strength, and capacity to heal. I work to build on strengths and develop new skills and insights to help people achieve the changes that they want in life, and challenge what doesn't work. It's a gift to have people trust me with their vulnerability, emotions and inner lives, and to see them change.

We all experience stuckness in our lives-in our relationships, career paths, body struggles, anxiety and depression, and more. Many of us know what we need to do to move forward—but find ourselves unable to take the leap to make it happen. And then we blame and shame ourselves, and stay in a loop of self-doubt that goes nowhere. The good news is you’re not lazy, crazy, broken, or unmotivated. Connection heals. I will support you in reconnecting to your authentic self, help you find ways to create a sense of safety within, and breakthrough what's been holding you back.

Most of us, at some point, feel disappointed with life. Maybe we expected it to be more. More joy. More peace. More connection with others. More meaning. We’re not looking for perfection, but is this all there is? You may label this feeling grief, anxiety, loneliness, depression, addiction, or you may be unable to give it a name. It may surface in you individually, or in your relationships. That nagging sense of discontent serves as a wake up call and it deserves attention. This is the purpose of my practice.
