My communication style

Most people are surprised by how informal and easy our sessions feel. I'm open-minded, supportive, and create space where you can be yourself. Clients often say they make real changes while feeling fully accepted. This happens through a relational, accepting style.

My journey to mental healthcare

I began learning about therapy when I saw my therapist in 1978. I identified short-term and long-term goals built on my strengths. So, I built on those in higher education, therapist training, and by working in a variety of settings. My goal was to find peace in my life, ways of reducing anxiety, and accept the losses of important people.

My goals for you

Clients often find their changes short-lived. We discuss what you've tried, what works, what doesn't, and how therapy can help. I educate as much as I listen, explaining which steps to take first, how to maintain progress, and helping you identify your path forward.

Our first session

We'll introduce ourselves, and I'll ask you to describe what's happening and what feels problematic. I'll explain how I've seen others solve similar issues, and we'll discuss what's helping you now. Together, we'll identify what you want and explore ways to find satisfaction.
