I bring over 20 years' experience to the pleasure of helping children, adults & parents overcome whatever has them -stuck- People come to therapy for all kinds of reasons. Anxiety, depression, sadness, grief. Divorce or chronic illness. Tearful, angry, lonely. Can’t get out of bed. Maybe you struggle just to get yourself out the door in the morning You long for an enthusiasm you once had, or a partner or companion who feels like home, or you're hoping to find a sense of home within yourself.

—Maybe your child struggles—shy, anxious. Struggling to make friends.The tools I use are broadly psycho-dynamic, emphasizing insight & the healing power of the relationship between us. In the end, though, I use what works. Whatever you walk in the door with—however we greet each other—that's where we'll begin. I am warm, supportive & always curious. In work with children I use play & always work closely with parents.

Time and again, I’ve seen painful, seemingly hopeless situations give way to something better with the help of therapy. Therapy means having someone on your side—sticking by you. I never know what arc therapy will take until we've begun, but I know that—working together—change will come.
