I enjoy an active, collaborative approach with my clients, helping them to develop effective coping strategies, improving their ability to get a better understanding of themselves, and an appreciation of their strengths. I help my clients make the most of their potential for happiness and satisfaction in their personal and professional lives. My clients struggle with relationship and professional issues. They are able to articulate what they are feeling and thinking, curious to develop insight, and motivated to change negative patterns.

In my practice, I aim to create a comfortable space within which to explore emotional, interpersonal, and behavioral difficulties. I work with children, adolescents and adults in individual, couple, and family psychotherapy. Through a collaborative process, I help patients discover connections between problematic patterns of thinking and relating, and the ongoing challenges they face. These connections – between thoughts and feelings, past and present, internal experience and external situations – can help a person think in new ways, generating possibilities for growth and change.
