Are you feeling alone, hurt, sad and want to feel better?


Are things just not going well and you've tried to fix it, but it just isn't working?  


Do you feel misunderstood and unheard in your relationship?


You don’t have to continue this way. A better life is possible and I will help you achieve it!


No matter what you may be feeling, please know that you, and your life, do have the potential to change.  The therapy process helps change the way you think about challenges, how to respond in relationships, and how you care for yourself.  It's my honor to guide my clients through the therapy process and leading them to a happier life.  Together we can identify your goals, find  solutions, and discover personal strengths.


Seeking the support of a psychotherapist is a positive step toward actively addressing and resolving emotions and situations that are troubling you.  Many of my clients start therapy because they are feeling anxious or depressed, burdened by relationship struggles, or overwhelmed by life's demands.  Others utilize the therapy experience as a way to improve personal happiness and explore self-improvement within themselves and with their relationships with others.


INDIVIDUAL THERAPY

I treat individuals with various issues, my  extensive experience includes treating anxiety and stress, depression and sadness, bipolar disorder, adjustment disorders, relational issues,  low self-esteem, work related issues and life transitions.

We will focus on personal growth, healing, increased insight and self-understanding.  My highest priority is helping you open doors to a new life.  I offer a non-judgmental, compassionate environment to help you heal and take charge of your life.   You will learn techniques that bring you closer to the person you want to be, to help you make decisions, build the relationships you wish to have, and have the life you want to live.

Please check my "SERVICES" page to  see a comprehensive list of my services.


COUPLES THERAPY / MARRIAGE COUNSELING

As a couples therapist I will help you learn effective communication  techniques, master conflict resolution strategies, improve your relationships and make healthy decisions,  You and your partner will learn to solve problems in a healthy and productive manner and learn techniques designed to rediscover happiness and find fulfillment and improve intimacy.  Whether you want to simply resolve differences or need help repairing your relationship after an affair I can help. I realize that every couple is different so I don’t tell you what all couples need, only the particular things that you need.  You deserve a healthy and loving relationship and I will help you make that happen.

Couples therapy is not limited to just marriage counseling.  My work also includes premarital relationships and people  in long-term relationships.  I also have extensive experience treating couples in gay and lesbian relationships.


My specialty includes working with couples in which one member has been diagnosed  with a terminal or chronic illness.  I also work with couples in which a family  member outside of the couple, such as a parent, sibling, or child, has a family member who has been diagnosed with an illness.
