My therapy approach is warm, compassionate, and collaborative. In an open and caring environment, an individual's ability to change self-defeating patterns of thoughts and behaviors, increase self-esteem, recognize strengths, and develop healthy relationships is enhanced.
As a seasoned therapist with over 30 years of clinical experience, my work is grounded in psychodynamic theory, and incorporates cognitive-behavioral techniques, positive psychology, mindfulness training, and family systems. I feel privileged to help facilitate growth and change in each of my clients as they work toward healthier, happier, and more fulfilling lives.
