It can be challenging to find a therapist that you can connect with and confide in. I became a therapist to help adolescents, teens, and adults navigate life’s many demands. I routinely counsel individuals and groups struggling with various degrees of depression, anxiety, phobias, lack of motivation, ADHD, and bereavement. I also help couples overcome marital problems as they struggle to improve their relationships. Life’s challenges can be daunting. Together we can build on your strengths and provide a safe and supportive environment to enable you to reach your goals.

Something might have happened or be happening in your life and you feel that it is not easy to deal with;

You might have found that some areas of your life, certain aspects of yourself or your relationship/family are not that satisfying;

Those are some of the situations when people come to me and benefit greatly from our contacts. I believe that each individual is uniquely different and I always adjust my approach accordingly to meet your specific needs.

My therapy perspective is as diverse as the community I serve. My work with individuals is geared toward strengthening their sense of self. I also facilitate peer support groups and small intimate therapeutic groups. My therapeutic model is a combination of Rogerian (person-centered therapy), and the Empowerment Approach (the connection between "social and economic justice" and "individual pain and suffering"). Family Systems Theory (connected to a living system); and Feminist Theory (gender and related concepts remain central to feminist social work theory). With this blend, the entire overarching concepts are framed.

I have been working with children and adolescents and their families for over 42 years. Therapy includes sessions with child and consultations with parents. When appropriate and with the parents' permission, consultations with teachers and other school personnel are conducted. I will speak with any person that impacts your child's life. Ultimately, the goal of therapy is to create conditions in your child's life that will lead to their growth and development. Recently, I have had success with young children experiencing anxiety due to sensory integration over-load and separation anxiety.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with 25 years in practice. I seek to provide a safe, comfortable and supportive environment in which clients can explore their struggles and how to best address them, in order to experience more peace and live more authentically. I employ a variety of techniques to achieve these goals, including CBT, psychoanalytic, coping strategies, family systems and most importantly, Rogerian based humanistic treatment. My belief about therapy is that it should be client centered; that every person is unique, and should be treated as an individual.
