About

WELCOME, as a psychotherapist, I cultivate a safe & supportive atmosphere in which my clients explore thoughts and feelings about the important areas in their lives that may be broken, or not working as well as one hoped and planned. Adults often address major life changes, symptoms of anxiety and depression, relationship issues, as well as struggles with substance use and alcohol abuse. With children and adolescents, both talk and play therapy are integral parts of treatment. Adolescents and families often work well together in treatment facing family issues in a safe, and structured therapeutic environment. Students struggling with learning difficulties and associated deficits in self esteem are an area of specialty. Accurate diagnosis and an integrated plan of recommendations are essential to maximizing academic outcomes and enjoying school. In general, I am devoted to helping people, from a wide range of backgrounds, to clarify their understanding of their lives, reduce unnecessary suffering, and strengthen close interpersonal relationships.
