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

My Approach to Helping

Each person's broad web of relationships and external circumstances impacts their view of the world and ability to cope within it. With over 13 years experience as a clinical psychotherapist, i consider these and other factors in my work with adults and couples. My approach is empathic, interactive and collaborative. While i see the importance in identifying root causes for behavior, i believe it is equally important to focus on coping mechanisms in the present and developing effective solutions for managing life's difficulties.
My work is rooted in the psychodynamic approach, with client concerns ranging from infertility/adoption, to relationship challenges to stress management. I have advanced certification in crisis management and addictions treatment
