My Approach to Helping
I love what I do & my clients make progress! I provide email support in-between sessions that really makes a difference for my clients, in addition to small activities that they can do to keep the focus on change. I have trained with two of the leaders in our field, Drs. John Gottman & Sue Johnson, innovators in research-based concepts that work. The couples and individual adults that I work with are very capable in their own lives, so it's an honor when they contact me to work on things. In addition to being a Licensed Psychotherapist & Board Certified Life Coach, I have been a guest lecturer at Western Connecticut State University. Clients usually decide to come in because they need an objective person to assist them in getting unstuck & manifesting more of their goals. By valuing your time & working hard together, we will gently shift challenges that you are struggling with. I have over 20 years combined experience in psychotherapy, education and business to draw from. I believe in a high level of service & so my office is designed to relax and comfort my clients. I encourage you if you are wondering if I can be helpful to you, to contact me and we can explore possibilities. My clients appreciate my flexible scheduling to meet their busy lives. I also provide life coaching for personal growth and organizational assistance.

The Duration and Frequency of Therapy
Therapy or coaching initially occurs more frequently in the beginning as many clients come into the process experiencing a significant amount of stress. Also, when a client's issues are on the surface as they most often are in the beginning, it can be an opportune time to work with them before the issues sometimes settle back down below the surface once life's challenges and routine's kick in. We start to spread out sessions when need so clients can get more data in-between sessions.
