I view psychotherapy as a creative, collaborative process between client and therapist. I value the uniqueness of each individual client and strive to create an environment of trust, compassion, respect and empathy. While we cannot change difficult and oftentimes traumatic past experiences, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life.
Common problems my clients bring to therapy include depression, anxiety, low self-esteem and relationship and career issues. I have a particular interest in working with adoption related concerns. Additionally, I have expertise working with individuals and families coping with cancer diagnosis and treatment.
I have over 25 years of clinical therapy experience helping individuals, couples and families. Please feel free to call me to discuss your situation or to schedule an appointment. I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.
