Are you working to get two steps ahead but find yourself three steps behind? Are you frustrated with daily responsibilities that few understand, and even fewer acknowledge? Perhaps you, your girlfriend, wife or partner noticed that you're more irritable, less talkative and checked out. Maybe you have made mistakes that you are not proud of but want to get through to the other side, being a better husband, father or person. You don't have to deal with these frustrations alone. You can feel better and still be true to who you are!

I am passionate about supporting women and mothers along their life’s journey. Expectations do not always align with the reality of a woman’s experience leaving many with feelings of guilt, anger, sadness, and loneliness that may further alienate them from feeling safe to express themselves to others openly and honestly. I have had countless conversations with women in the hospital setting about how alone they felt at times during their motherhood journeys. Having a safe, warm, unconditionally accepting space where you can express yourself openly and honestly is the space that I strive to create for my clients.

As women, we wear multiple hats and seek to fill multiple roles. In addition to external pressures, completing day to day tasks can be overwhelming and anxiety provoking. Additionally, in meeting the needs of others, we can tend to ignore our own needs. As a therapist, my desire is to give each woman a space in which she is seen, heard, and validated. I seek to work with women who have unresolved trauma, perinatal moods, postpartum depression, anxiety, depression, adjustment issues among other women's issues.

I teach the Enneagram Approach in the Healthcare, Education and Recovery Communities. The Enneagram Approach offers a framework and methodology to integrate the somatic, psychological and spiritual facets of a human being. It is a powerful and practical tool for understanding human personalities. The Enneagram distinguishes nine personality types and describes the strengths, potentials, and challenges of each. These nine types reveal the spectrum of perspectives, which unconsciously or consciously, shape our approach to relationships.

Life is complicated. Often the difficulties and stress we face create conflict and struggles that need to be shared with others. Through counseling, I believe that clients can find relief from the stress and pain of broken relationships, addiction, past traumas and unidentified emotional and spiritual wounds. I primarily work with adults experiencing anxiety or depression. I also work with people experiencing grief or who have been in abusive relationships. I work collaboratively with clients to help them find peace and rest in the midst of daily life.

So I can do either in person or online therapy.
After 25 years of working in the field primarily offering individual therapy, I am now most interested in group therapy. My co-therapist and I offer two groups currently. Both groups have openings and are ongoing psychotherapy groups. There is nothing quite like the magic of therapy group. Group can immediately effect feelings of isolation, loneliness and supports healthy connections. Group can normalize human needs for a sense of belonging and support during these most uncertain times. I am accepting new patients and I hope to keep my practice relational with a strong focus on couples, families and group therapy.
