Hello. Welcome to Headway.I consider therapy to be a partnership with you during which we work toward helping you to feel more comfortable with yourself and toward feeling more empowered. I hold a Masters Degree in Social work and have been practicing for 40 years. I work with clients who are experiencing, depression, anxiety, low self esteem, relationship issues and many other issues. I have a special interest in working with clients who have been touched by adoption as I am an adoptee myself.

I have been trained in insight oriented therapy and also use cognitive behavioral techniques. I've found that therapy often involves looking for patterns that have been established over the years that aren't effective for the client currently. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is helpful in helping clients to explore these issues while feeling supported and heard. I feel that my strengths are in helping the client to feel comfortable and in giving them hope that change is possible.

Clients will feel more empowered, learn to accept themselves, and will learn the skills to change habits or thinking that are preventing them from reaching their full potential. We will work on goals together in a safe, supportive manner. Starting therapy takes courage but can be very liberating and teaches skills that can be used for the rest of one's life. Knowledge is power!
