Sometimes we may find it difficult to live our best lives, for a variety of reasons. Therapy can help turn whatever you are struggling with into an opportunity for positive change. I strive to utilize cognitive-behavioral and psychodynamic techniques to empower others to make those positive changes. That may mean overcoming depression and anxiety, resolving relationship issues, or coping with stressful situations. We can all use someone to talk to from time to time, and I can help.

My practice is dedicated to help children, teens and adults acknowledge and heal from wounds - not the "Band Aid" ones, but the kind that leave an imprint on your heart and psyche. Trauma and grief can be overwhelming, and can emanate from many different sources (death, violence, abandonment, relationship issues). I also work with children and teens to develop the coping skills necessary to grow and mature, especially as they deal with grief, anxiety, violence, and school related stress. The 'trickle down effect' of these issues is devastating - affecting how children learn, their social relationships, and self image.
