Personal Statement

As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

With more than 22 years of experience, I have worked with individuals and families of all kinds, including same sex families as well as foster and adoptive families. I personally know the struggles of being part of the "sandwich" generation. I took care of an ailing parent for nine years while having to parent young children.

I work with a wide range of emotional and behavioral issues providing services that span from therapy for depression and grief counseling to parenting support and beyond. In a comfortable and supportive atmosphere, I offer a highly personalized approach tailored to each of my clients individual needs to help attain the personal growth they’re striving for.
