Great to meet you!

From a relatively young age I enjoyed listening to and talking with people who varied in their personalities and their stories. My nature is to be a caretaker. The blending of these led me to a career in health care, first as a RN, then later as a psychotherapist

I have experience working with teens and adults, individuals, couples, and families. I have experience helping clients deal with a variety of issues including, but not limited to anxiety, depression, relationship problems, life transitions, grief, dealing with chronic illness, and stress management

My approach to therapy

I have been licensed for over 30 years and am a firm believer that one therapeutic style does not fit all clients or situations. Overall I have a humanistic approach, but am very eclectic, utilizing strategies from cognitive behavioral, psychodynamic, and family systems, depending on what fits the client the best.
