If you are struggling with difficult feelings or situations I might be able to help. I enjoy connecting with clients and getting to know the uniqueness of each person I work with. I can help you make sense of your life experiences and together we can find new ways for you to be able to cope better and feel more fulfilled in your life. I really enjoy helping people to thrive and become more authentically themselves. My style is collaborative, genuine and interactive. I believe humor can be an important part of getting through difficult times.
I won't judge what you are going through; I will listen with empathy and help you to find some hope. Together we will find new ways of looking at issues, develop deeper self awareness, and break through barriers to help you live a more joyful and connected life.
Through my many years of experience as a psychotherapist and social worker, I have acquired breadth, depth and understanding of the importance of each person's life experiences, personal struggles, and recognizing the strengths and resilience that each person brings to life, though at times these resources may be hidden.
