I see my role as a guide and facilitator to help you discover the resources within to become an active agent of your own healing and growth. You'll develop new awareness about the patterns in your life that no longer serve you and new skills to transform those patterns. For couples, I'll help you lower reactivity and shift the dynamics so that you can restore safety and create a more connected and intimate bond.
My specialties include couples, relationship, work, self-esteem, depression and anxiety, loss, and life transitions. I have been practicing for 30 years and am trained in psychodynamic psychotherapy, emotionally focused couples therapy and AEDP.
In a compassionate and boundaried setting I will help you find ways to manage the discomfort and pain that arise from life's challenges so that you can feel more vitality, connectedness, authenticity and calm.
