Are you looking for an experienced, non-judgmental counselor for you or your child? My empathic, warm approach creates a safe, accepting environment for you to explore behaviors, motives, and emotions. At the same time I am direct and practical. Most of the adults I work with are highly functioning and yet experiencing levels of anxiety and depression that interfere with living a rich, joyous life. My best work with children is with those adjusting to losses and transitions due to adoption, divorce, and death of a loved one. I also work effectively with teen girls.
Whether you seek brief counseling to help you through a crisis or ongoing support during major life transitions I bring a lifetime of experience into my work with you. You will find my approach active, direct, and practical.
My work is largely with teens, adults, couples, and families. I am trained in play therapy, which helps younger children understand and integrate life experiences. I am especially passionate about working with adoptive families, including trans-racial, LGBT, and families with both biological and adopted children.
