My Approach to Helping

The hardest part of therapy is getting to the first session, but once you take that step you will be happy you did. I specialize in empowering those who have tried to change but seem to be treading water or going backwards and don't understand why. You will experience a safe, compassionate, understanding environment to help you understand and accept yourself and to move in the direction you choose.
I have a sliding scale and accept credit cards and PPO insurance plans.

More Info About My Practice

Are you ready to say goodbye to loneliness, depression or bad habits such as overeating, dieting, drinking or using drugs? Are you stuck in your career, marriage or relationships? Take that first difficult step and make an appointment to help yourself. I work with individuals, couples and families in several therapeutic frameworks to reduce anxiety, anger, depression and self-destructive behaviors. I have a sliding scale and take credit cards and PPO insurance plans.
