My Approach to Helping
How long do you want to feel stuck, overwhelmed? Take a step toward change. Chances are you're more resilient than you think. One key to successful therapy is an open, honest, and cohesive relationship between client and therapist. I'd like to help make that happen. I treat individuals, couples, and families dealing with various issues such as relationship conflict, sexual orientation, stress management, chronic illness, and senior caregiver support. I'll assess your degree of insight, motivation, strength and support. Then work collaboratively with you to develop an action plan for change. Sometimes people enter counseling for personal growth or to change negative behavior patterns. Whatever your reason, I'd like to help you reach your goals. Please feel free to visit my website for more information.

 

More Info About My Practice
I am an out-of-network provider and recommend that you contact your insurance provider to review your plan benefits prior to making an appointment. I recognize that these are challenging economic times and will work with those in need on a sliding scale. I look forward to helping you.

 

Importance of the Client-Therapist Alliance

The greatest indicator of successful treatment is a strong and trusting client-therapist alliance. I work hard to create a safe and trusting environment enabling you to express your inner most thoughts and feelings. Without free expression we can't move forward to a point where you will grow, change, find solutions or resolution to your issues.
