My goal is to create a safe, person-centered space to engender grace: not trying to fix or cure, always moving towards transformation. Working with hospice for the past 15 years has deepened both my understanding and skills towards honoring and helping individuals and families as they move through many life transitions. If you need help with major changes, trauma, loss, grief, adjustment disorders or are exploring existential crisis, I offer a safe space to continue your process.

We are truly living in troubled times, globally and personally. Many of us find ourselves fluctuating between feelings of anxiety and/or depression. At 67 years old, I’ve spent nearly half my life – 35 years – as a Marriage and Family Therapist/Psychotherapist. Adding Hypnotherapy to my practice has been a game changer, and that, along with friends, colleagues, and many clients, I’ve learned ways of managing my thinking and thereby managing my emotions. This is what I do in my private practice and I can help you to do the same.

Maybe you are noticing patterns you would rather not repeat, and you are ready to take the steps necessary to create a brighter future.

I offer psychotherapy to people who feel drawn to explore and expand their self awareness and transform emotional confusion and suffering. I believe that it’s in relationship with others where we are harmed and it’s also in relationship with others where we can heal. The therapy relationship facilitates a healing conversation because it is a place of safety where you can begin to expand your ability to communicate, develop your capacity for self compassion, deepen your emotional understanding, and increase your self confidence.

People go to therapy for various reasons and there may be no "right time" to start. I realized the first step of reaching out for help can be intimidating and I strive to make that process as simple and transparent as possible. My practice is centered on the idea that behavioral change is possible and constant. With a combination of social support, personal agency and opportunities, people can flourish to their full potential. It would be my honor to be a part of your journey toward healing and growth.

My passion is to help men and women heal from painful experiences, including abuse, domestic violence, divorce, relational issues, and loneliness. I provide my clients with a safe and comforting space to process their pain. Together, we will work to understand the often unexplainable symptoms of grief, trauma, and loss and to identify those places in their lives where they feel burdened or overwhelmed. It is easier to identify trauma and abuse in others than in ourselves, especially when we are so used to putting others' needs before our own. I want every client to know they are precious, even in their brokenness..
