Therapist Overview
It takes courage to speak with a therapist, but the potential rewards outweigh the risk of opening up. I have experience helping adults and older adolescents with anxiety, mood disorders, relationship problems, addictions, trauma, and coping with disease, among other concerns. I work with each patient to forge a strong working relationship and I strive to create a safe and comfortable environment for open communication. My approach to therapy is collaborative, positive, empathetic, and respectful. Using the metaphor of “life is a journey,” I see my role as walking the road with you for a time. You are the expert on your life, but I can help you uncover some of the areas where you have become “stuck,” thereby beginning the process of change. Therapy is a deeply personal and courageous endeavor. The fit between a patient and therapist plays an important role in healing and growth. It has been an honor to have a role in helping my patients lead more authentic and meaningful lives.
