Life can be daunting in so many ways from relationship issues to developmental challenges to dealing with chronic mental and physical illnesses to facing multiple stressors to lacking faith in oneself or others.
I am a licensed professional counselor with over forty years of experience. My approach is humanistic, in that I believe in the inherent goodness and strength of each individual, and will provide you with compassion, empowerment, support, and an environment that is safe and nonjudgmental. My approach is also cognitive-behavioral, in that when appropriate, I will help you challenge and overcome self-defeating thoughts (i.e. inner critic) and behaviors (i.e. non-assertiveness or avoidance). In their place, you will be able to learn healthier coping strategies and more positive and realistic thinking.

I help those with money worries gain confidence and clarity in their relationship with money, and in their lives.
Simply put, money conversations are hard - money talk ranks up there with religion, politics, and our sex lives. No wonder we avoid talking about it - and especially in these uncertain times. Our relationship with money is complex, just like our relationships with loved ones, coworkers, ourselves, and our bodies. On top of that, money is often paired with feelings of anxiety, fear, shame, guilt, and embarrassment. “I’m bad with money. I'm overwhelmed. I keep making the same mistakes. I spend too much - and on the wrong things. I have more debt than I care to admit. Confidence with money is for other people, not me.”

While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
