“People often block progress toward their goals by holding tightly to a limited idea of who they are and what they can achieve. However, it is possible to make real, substantive changes in your life. Through therapy you can access inner strengths and apply them to problems that appear insurmountable. I regard it as my job to help you gain insight into your experience and shift your perspective, allowing you to recognize and overcome internal obstacles. We will identify not only the challenges you face, but also the strengths you have brought to bear on past problems.

As a social work supervisor in a large healthcare agency serving people with chronic illnesses, I am particularly experienced with individuals and families challenged by illness. When facing health crises, we experience threats to our identity and strains in our core relationships.

Nevertheless, it is possible to continue to build strength and understanding together with those most important to you. I can work with you to allow the changes demanded by illness while simultaneously identifying, protecting and nurturing what is of deep value in your life.”
