Helping People Find Therapists & Advocating for Ethical and Healthy Therapy & Marriage Counseling Practices

My Approach to Helping

Are you in emotional pain and feeling overwhelmed? Are you experiencing depression or anxiety? Do you feel you lack self esteem? Do you find yourself upset and discouraged by your relationships? Gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered, straight, polyamorous and clients in open relationships are encouraged to contact me as I am a LGBT and poly affirming psychotherapist, who is open to working with individuals and couples from any background.

I work with clients dealing with family problems, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma, grief, abuse, sexual and gender identity, loneliness and loss, coming out, work related stress, sexuality, and life transitions.

People often seek therapy because they feel like they are not living the life they want. I offer caring and supportive psychotherapy, with a special heart for creative individuals. My approach is very holistic and collaborative in nature. Together we will design your treatment goals.

The celebration of diversity is a guiding principal behind my work so all are welcome. I offer individual, couple and poly sessions. Call today if you have any questions or for your free 30 min phone consultation.

"The world is round and the place which may seem like the end may also be only the beginning". George Baker (1877-1965)
