Compassionate Collaboration ---- I am a Clinical Psychologist with over twenty years of experience as a psychotherapist.

My goal as a counselor is to provide clients with a safe space to share their concerns, struggles, and difficulties, and work towards goals of happiness, stability, and serenity. A main focus of my work is to help each client to achieve a connection between mind, body, and soul; to reach a sense and feeling of peace in the present moment. Sometimes, this includes healing wounds of the past. I firmly believe in meeting the client where they are at, and working together, step-by-step, on moving forward.

If you feel dissatisfied, stressed, depressed, anxious, unfocused, stuck or unhappy with yourself in any area of your life, I will work with you.

We seek psychological guidance when life doesn't go the way we think it should or want. Sadness, fear, anxiety, anger and confusion, often cloud our hearts and minds. We tell ourselves what should be, not how it is. This build-up of unsaid feelings, pressures and negative thoughts, commonly experienced as self-judgment, keeps us from living a joyful, balanced life. The Individual and Group therapies I've designed are dedicated toward mindful awareness of, and ease with life's daily challenges. I seek to create safety and freedom for exploration of your unique truth in body, mind and soul.

Over the course of the past 20 years, I have had the honor of treating youth, adults, families, and couples who have worked through adjustment issues, grief, trauma, anxiety, depression, identity, relationship challenges, infertility, coping with a chronic illness, and conflict resolution.

Why do people seek therapy? Usually it's because they're feeling dissatisfied, anxious, or depressed--and it's becoming difficult to cope. Do you feel stuck in a relationship or work situation? Struggling with life transitions: marriage, divorce, pregnancy/infertility, parenting, career change, becoming an in-law, serious illness, aging parents? If you'd like to change your life, I can help you understand what's getting in the way. Working together in a safe, nonjudgmental space, we can help you find the solutions you're seeking.

Are you wondering if it's possible to experience more satisfaction in your life? Have you noticed repetitive, self-defeating patterns hindering success in relationships or at work? Are you struggling with depression or anxiety? Unsure of exactly what you want for yourself? Considering therapy is the first step toward feeling better and finding fulfillment. In more than twenty-five years of practice, the transformative power of psychotherapy still impresses me. I view therapy as collaboration. Together, we will deepen your capacity for self-reflection, remove obstacles blocking you from reaching your full potential, and to finding your authentic self.

We all experience times in our lives when what once worked for us no longer does. We may become overwhelmed, anxious, fearful, or angry and are no longer able to ignore those feelings. Instead they get in our way. Talking to someone, especially one who listens to you carefully and joins you in a collaborative and supportive process, is amazingly helpful. People with whom I work note that they begin to feel better and less alone almost immediately.
