Many times people of all ages experience prolonged periods of emotional isolation that interferes with psychological growth. The emphasis of my work is to provide a warm and nurturing setting so that a relationship can grow between us. I encourage clients to feel comfortable enough with me to open up. I am active in the therapy session and provide immediate feedback.

My approach is psychodynamic psychotherapy that emphasizes systematic study of the psychological forces underlying human behavior, feelings, and emotions and how they might relate to early experiences. I am fascinated by the mystery of what sustains the healing process. After over 30 years of experience I believe that healing comes from a warm and nurturing environment that supports clients in gaining understanding and insights that will enable them to grow.

My goal for my clients is to have a greater understanding of themselves and more confidence to achieve their goals. I expect them to have become more mindful of who they are and what they want out life. I want them to learn skills that will help them to better adapt themselves to the stressors of life with flexibility and decreased traumatic stress reactions.
