I am a life-long psychologist & educator who has been helping people learn, grow and find their way in the world for more than 30 years. I've worked in college counseling centers, hospitals, K-12 schools, and private practice. The challenges you face may be short-term or ongoing. I will help clarify why you're struggling and together we can make a plan for moving forward.
People often seek therapy when they are in pain and feeling stuck. Pain can take many forms: anxiety, depression, fear, anger, shame or confusion. By leading with empathic curiosity, I help you understand your troubles with greater depth and complexity. If you are struggling with finding meaning and purpose in your life, losing a loved one, stressors at work, navigating a divorce, caring for an elder, parenting a teen, coping with illness or injury, and you want to feel better, therapy can help. As a seasoned, skilled therapist, I can help you get unstuck in this complicated world we live in.
Greater clarity about what you are feeling and why you are feeling that way can be a powerful step towards changing your experience. Depending on the goals of your therapy, we can explore the way past experiences are influencing the present, or we might adopt a practical, problem-solving focus to address a specific issue that is impacting your life. I offer a steady, predictable environment and meet you wherever you are.
