My Approach to Helping
I understand that life and relationships can be painful and confusing at times. Despite our best intentions, we can't always make our relationships work or our lives feel fulfilling. In my work, I emphasize the creation of a safe and attuned environment in which self-exploration and insight can be encouraged and unconscious, problematic patterns can be brought to light and explored. As well, I help clients to understand and recognize how the quality of past relationships shape and determine current relationships. Together we work to promote deeper self-understanding and healthier, more conflict free, ways of relating.
More Info About My Practice
My way of working with you is warm, open, interactive and relational. I listen carefully to your story in order to understand the underlying and often unconscious patterns that are keeping you "stuck". Then, together we make the connections that move you toward a more satisfying and meaningful life.
Specific Issue(s) I'm Skilled at Helping With
I have over 25 years of experience working with individuals, couples and adolescents on a wide variety of problems and concerns. My training includes an Advanced Certificate in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy, a professional license in Marriage and Family Therapy, and many years of training and practice in meditation and mindfulness.

I offer you my expertise and support in moving toward health and healing. I invite you to call or email me to further discuss your particular questions and concerns.
