Life can be painful and confusing sometimes. Maybe you are struggling with anxiety, depression, or challenging life changes. Maybe you are grieving the loss of someone, or some part of your life...feeling alone and afraid to take the next step. lt might be time to get a different perspective on your problems so that you can start to feel the relief you are seeking and move forward. I will work carefully with you to uncover the basis for your distress, reexamine your expectations and choices, then explore new ways of experiencing your life that make sense to you.
I help my clients learn to cope more effectively with their problems and become more resilient to face future life challenges by focusing on their unique strengths and abilities. They begin to face their struggles and painful emotions with greater confidence and hope as we look at long held beliefs and ways of coping with life that have become problematic.
I believe eveyone has the potential for change and I welcome each new opportunity to build a caring, trusting relationship to begin the collaborative process of reclaiming your life. I've worked with a wide range of issues in my private practice and have experience with Divorce Recovery, Children Grieve Too, Long Term Care, and Grievance Mediation.
