About

I am a client-centered licensed clinical therapist with over 25 years of experience working as a cognitive-behavioral therapist, hospice social worker, and life coach. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, transitions to college, transitions into retirement, caregiving, OCD, autism, and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced a sudden change or crisis.

My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, and rational-emotive therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!
