Do you feel overwhelmed navigating certain aspects of your life or finding yourself having difficulty with a new transition? Are you struggling with feelings of loneliness, entering the world of dating for the first time or processing a break-up? In my work, I strive to use a client-centered, strengths-based approach as I believe that each person who seeks me out is unique and deserves a tailored approach to match their needs and personality. I bring warmth, compassion and a touch of humor into the room as I find these are all important aspects in fostering a strong therapeutic alliance that feels safe & collaborative.

My clinical approach is interpersonal and psychodynamic.
My 25 years of clinical experience have convinced me of the importance of feeling comfortable with your therapist and hopeful about therapy. If you are feeling anxious, depressed, or troubled by relationship or work issues, I can help you clarify your concerns, identify goals, and work toward both symptom relief and improved skills to deal with both current and future problems. In addition to individual psychotherapy with adults, I also enjoy helping adults with parenting skills, navigating normal life transitions and the challenges of change at all stages of life.

Individual Psychotherapy is a process of getting to know yourself and your inner world, so you can live more fully in the outer world of work, play, and relationships. I do what I can to create a safe environment in which you can be emotionally honest with me and yourself, which allows you to access previously scary or unavailable parts of yourself, so that you can embrace your past; live more fully in the present; and be creatively alive in your future.

As you begin in psychotherapy, I recognize and honor the courage it can take to embark on this journey. Life can be inherently stressful and overwhelming. You may feel stuck, burned out, down, or anxious. Emotions may be hard to manage. Whether you’re coping with a recent issue or you’ve been struggling for some time, I’ll work with you to meet your specific goals. I view psychotherapy as a collaborative process that is unique to each person. You should feel safe, heard, and understood in the therapy relationship. This paves the way for you to develop a better understanding of yourself, explore ways of healing, and learn new skills.

I have a particular interest in helping people with personality and relationship problems. In therapy I try to create an environment where patients will feel safe sharing and exploring all their thoughts and feelings about themselves, so that we can trace how these affect their daily experiences. To do this we may also examine the person's moment to moment experience in therapy. Understanding the interactions between internal assumptions on the one hand, and feelings and behavior, on the other,leads to a more stable sense of self and the possibility of different choices.
