I am known for Caring and Professional PERSONAL, MARRIAGE & RELATIONSHIP Counseling. Life is all about relationships. We shape them, and they shape us - they touch us to our very core! But finding a well-qualified relationship therapist when your relationship is suffering can be very difficult! Many therapists lack the specialized training, experience, or license to work with couples and families. As a result, couples often experience marriage therapy as lukewarm in supporting the goal of life-long commitment. I am licensed as a Marriage & Family Therapist, as well as Clinical Social Worker at the highest level of experience.

I have been helping individuals, couples and families move through crises and live happier, healthier lives. I can help you, too!

Welcome! I am a psychotherapist who works with people to achieve a personal sense of well-being and vitality. I believe our life struggles are rooted in our unconscious. Due to imperfect childhoods, we develop defenses to help us cope. While we needed these defenses as children, they can become obstacles in our adult life, since they block our true feelings and greatest potential. I will actively collaborate with you to uncover these defenses and empower you to live a full, authentic, and joyful life.

I specialize in loss and bereavement. My work provides strength to people who are managing a loss. You may have experienced the loss of a partner, child, or parent. You may have undergone a pregnancy loss or have infertility struggles. Or you are dealing with a shift in a relationship or change at work. Coping with these situations is challenging. It is critical to get compassionate support and develop strategies to manage feelings associated with loss. It is okay to feel sad, and normal to even feel anger. I will help guide you to understand your feelings and develop mechanisms to manage your experience.

Are you stressed? Overwhelmed? Feeling like you have nobody to talk to or will understand you? Taking the steps to make changes in your life is the beginning of enhancing your well being.

One plan or course of treatment certainly does not fit all, and I look forward to finding what works for you. I have experience working with substance abuse, depression, anxiety, interpersonal issues, bereavement and loss.

Sometimes all that stands in the way of your happiness and peace of mind is your own thoughts. It's remarkable how our thoughts work against us creating anxiety, depression, and an overall feeling of being trapped or stuck.

Whether it is getting rid of your fear, understanding why you are so sad, dreaming of a healthier relationship, or just trying to figure out what will actually make you happy, I am here to help you learn how to take control of your life.

There is no need to face some of life's challenges alone. The mission of my practice is to offer individuals, couples and families, a safe place to explore all of life's possibilities.
