I enjoy helping individuals find balance by addressing the issues that keep them stuck. Feeling depressed, overwhelmed, anxious and wondering how to work through painful experiences from the past? Sometimes the most important thing you can do is to show up and ask for help. My work is to provide an empathic, nonjudgmental atmosphere for you to work through your discomfort and create a healing experience. I hold the belief that we are all resilient and have the internal capacity to heal ourselves. An essential element in this effort is the development of a trusting relationship between client and therapist.

I have worked with the military, their partners, gay & lesbian and survivors of sexual abuse.
Sometimes life has us feeling guarded, stressed, ready for battle or just feeling defeated. It can be so exhausting to continuously feel rejected, abused, inadequate, ashamed, guilty or even insignificant by loved ones. Maybe you had to do, what you had to do, to get through and you are tired of being tired. I have worked with anxiety, depression, PTSD, anger, trauma ( multigenerational trauma) & those that have been abused. I have a Mindfulness based approach that taps into your strengths to look for solutions to find what works for you. Here you will find a non-judgmental environment that allows you to just be yourself.

I have specialized in women's mental health for over 30 years with particular specialities in eating disorders, sexual abuse and lesbian issues.
I use a very eclectic approach in which I am engaged and actively involved in the therapeutic process. I ask lots of questions. I invite my patients to move away from self-judgment and to be truly curious about themselves and their lives. We look together at patterns of functioning, at assumptions about the self, at how the present reflects the past. The goal is authenticity and the path is self-awareness.
