My Quote

Personal Note

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker/Psychotherapist who's been helping clients live better lives for more than a decade. I have extensive experience working with adults and adolescents on such issues as depression, anxiety, obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors, grief & loss, substance abuse, identity and sexual orientation, spirituality, intimacy and relationships, career stalemates, lack of fulfillment, and difficult transitions.

I am committed to improving your health and happiness. Whether you are looking to set a new course in life, heal a wounded heart, or break from unhealthy habits, I'd like to help you become the person want to be.

Philosophy

It's my belief that we are at our best when our hearts and minds are in harmony. When one hurts, the other suffers. When one heals, the other mends. It's only by listening to and understanding both your mental and emotional states that you can achieve purpose and fulfillment in life. I take an insight-oriented, solution-focused approach to therapy. After setting mutually-determined treatment objectives, I help individuals, couples, and families achieve life goals, heal emotional wounds, become 'unstuck', or break free from unhealthy patterns. Psychotherapy isn't a magical quick fix, but it can improve your relationships, your coping skills, and your overall sense of well-being. If you're wiling to work at it, you CAN create the life you want to live.
