My Ideal Client

Are you in midlife or more and need help with finding a sense of direction? Are you struggling with midlife changes and need support? Are you searching for a therapist who will provide you with emotional and mental support without cookie cutter answers? My special area of interest is midlife adults but I also work with adults at various ages and stages of life.

My Approach to Helping

I have an eclectic approach with an emphasis on psychodynamic therapy. I am down to earth, practical, supportive yet challenging in the therapy I offer. I enjoy working with clients who are proactive, engaged in improving their emotional well being, and receptive to the therapeutic process.

My Values as a Therapist

I value psychotherapy as a method to understand your emotional and mental world. Psychotherapy can help you make sense out of emotional chaos, improve your emotional well being, and support you in taking healthy actions that can change your life. I have devoted my adult life to the study, practice, and sharing of psychotherapy. I understand that talk therapy may not be right for everyone, but for those of us who have benefited from it and those who may, I offer my service to you.
