My Approach to Helping
Our lives are full of obstacles that can prevent us from living life to it's fullest. Some obstacles we seem to bring upon ourselves, while others are thrust upon us. Overcoming these obstacles can be difficult and sometimes painful. I offer a safe, non-judgmental therapeutic setting where, together, we can explore the specific challenges you are facing. I incorporate a variety of therapeutic interventions. Based on your individual goals and life experiences, the focus of our work may be solution-based, cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic or interpersonal. Often a combination of therapeutic approaches is effective.
For over 20 years, I have worked with clients dealing with a multitude of challenges including stress, anxiety, low elf-esteem, family conflicts, grief and difficult child custody proceedings as well as with clients facing the daily challenges of living with a variety of mental illnesses. I provide a safe environment for clients in the LGBTQ+ community to deal with a variety of life challenges complicated by family, systemic and societal prejudices.
