We all hope that life will be calm and peaceful and that we can solve whatever challenges come our way with our own resources and coping strategies.  This is certainly what I wish for you.  However, when life gets too stressful to manage on our own, and the challenges become overwhelming, seeking out a caring, compassionate, and skilled therapist can help. I offer you over 25 years of experience helping people to identify goals, find solutions, and relieve their stress.

Often people feel nervous about starting therapy and do not know what to expect.  I hope this website will answer your questions and provide you with a sense of my approach.  I see therapy as a collaborative process where together we work to find solutions to your pressing issues.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions that you might have. Research has shown that the single most important factor for a successful outcome in therapy is to have a good relationship with your therapist.  Many clients come to me after they have been to other therapists and believe that they finally get to the crux of their issues. Working with me, you can expect that  I will use my 25+ years of experience to help you find relief. I will provide a safe, comfortable, and nonjudgmental atmosphere to help you accomplish your goals, and will guarantee reasonable access to me including prompt return phone of  your phone calls.
