My Approach to Helping

Welcome!

Spring/Summer can bring new hope, or continued feelings of loneliness, depression or sadness. Why not try a safe and comfortable counseling experience and space for us to talk about your issues? Reading this profile is a way to begin, so congratulations.

As an experienced therapist, I bring insight and deep respect for all people. Your feelings have value. Those feelings of grief, anxiety, or low self-esteem can be explored following your own goals and comfort. You don't need to work through any issues alone.

I work with all types of couples, young, mid-life and older adults on a variety of issues, such as grief and loss/transition; traumatic experiences; sexual identity; eating disorders; and sexual dysfunction in women. My hours to see clients include weekdays and some weekends and evenings. I offer couples counseling, Life Coaching, and at times facilitate therapy groups.

Specific Issue(s) I'm Skilled at Helping With

Specific skills in couples counseling, trauma counseling, grief and loss, anxiety, and crisis of gender identity. I work very well with adult women who have been sexually abused as children, as well as women experiencing sexual dysfunction. Issues of forgiveness, spirituality and connectedness, are also specialties. Career counseling and exploring your special gifts is always valuable, and so often yields true life change. Specialization in various sexual orientation/gender fluidity/LGBT Couples Counseling.
