My Approach to Helping

Do you accept yourself or is this a constant struggle? Are you trying to make sense of your life and its challenges? If you are looking at this site you are probably ready to begin an exploration, a search for what is affecting you. Perhaps you are trying to understand how to live more effectively and need help exploring your strengths and perceived weaknesses. Everything that happens in life contributes to who you are.

I love assisting with this exploration. Inherently, my belief is that most people are trying to make sense of their lives, circumstances, or relationships. My practice is about acceptance and empathy sprinkled with a healthy dose of humor. Therapy often involves tears and laughter.

I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and use it when appropriate. While it is most often associated with trauma it is effective in many areas.

One of the most important aspects of therapy is a comfortable fit between you and your therapist. To help you assess if I am the right therapist for you I offer a free 30 minute consultation or 15 minute phone session.
