Are you feeling sad, anxious or overwhelmed? How about feeling disconnected or having no purpose in life? I understand that coming to therapy can be scary. We can feel so vulnerable opening up to a stranger about our confusions, fears and insecurities. Therapy is a process of self-exploration, change and healing. The therapy process will help you in gaining greater awareness about yourself, your relationships, and situations you find yourself in. In therapy, you will learn skills for coping and discover solutions to your problems.

I offer people warmth and acceptance. Therapy can be a place to explore and expand what you do well and what you love about yourself. By becoming more aware of moment to moment sensory experiences and habits of relating in the world, people can develop increased stability and well-being, and from there, more easily make desired changes. Often people are critical of themselves, when some of what they are experiencing is part of the human condition. Together we can work to normalize feelings. Feeling acceptance from others and yourself can help create the space and conditions to realize your dreams.

I have decided to focus my efforts on those disillusioned, displaced, and depressed individuals who struggle with three attributes that are necessary (if not imperative) to live a fulfilling life: Self-reliance, Self-sufficiency, and Self-governance. I believe that the facilitation of these realistic, accountable, and disciplined attributes will only create a much more valuable and enlightening existence for all of us. I also address the dangers of SELF-censorship which have increased tenfold in the united states. We see it at work, our academic institutions, and within close relationships. People are afraid to speak.

It's hard to ask for help, so you have taken a really good first step in finding help and feeling better. A significant piece of meaningful and effective therapy is the relationship you have with your therapist. When it's the right fit, therapy can be a wonderful part of your life and can lead to feeling more grounded, confident and empowered. I am grateful to be in this work. It is a privilege to hear the stories of my clients and be a part of their journey.

36+ years of working with people's suffering and struggle have taught me much about the loving and destructive things we can do to ourselves and others. I have also witnessed the incredible growth, healing, and freedom of people who put energy and sincere effort into understanding their experiences and learning how to uncover and grow their innate wisdom and strength

I have studied extensively in the area of addictions, women's issues, Jungian Psychology, and Bowen Family Therapy. I utilize all of these ideas in my work, depending on the type of client I am working with. My approach is Rogerian, providing a safe and supportive environment, but not at the expense of my client's growth. I believe therapy is about becoming the actualized individual you were meant to be.

Grief leaves you feeling hopeless and alone. Life as you know it has ended and everyone wants you to “get over it”. You don’t even recognize the person you have become. Following a loss, everything feels different. You don’t feel like you can relate to friends and the world around you as you did before.
