“With over thirty years experience, my approach is humanistic, practical and based on the belief that change, growth and development are possible at any age. I can help you overcome the painful obstacles that prevent you from creating the life you want to live or the relationship you want to be in.

I specialize in working with individuals, couples and groups to use their creativity, strengths and even their problems to change the things in their lives that make them unhappy.

My approach to helping people is both proactive and immediately useful. While we can't dismiss the impact of early childhood, it doesn't have to determine the present or future. We can use our personal histories to create new skills and tools for living.”

Taking the first step toward getting help is often the most difficult
