My Approach to Helping

I believe that growth and change can occur in the context of a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship between myself and my clients. I draw on a variety of approaches and techniques to incorporate what will be most helpful to each client. My style is interactive, direct, collaborative, and empathic. I offer a practical, sensitive, and flexible approach to help my clients better understand themselves, transform unhealthy patterns, overcome barriers, and increase feelings of well-being. Ultimately, I seek to help people move from surviving to thriving.

More Info About My Practice

My practice covers a wide variety of issues, including depression and anxiety, grief and loss, recovery from childhood abuse/trauma, and navigating life transitions. In addition, I have special expertise in sexual and gender identity, relationships, and women's issues. I have experience with all types of couples, including mixed-orientation couples, where one person is straight and the other is gay, lesbian, or bisexual.
