About me
I am an experienced therapist with 18+ years helping adults and adolescents deal with depression, anxiety, and relationship issues as well as with all of the struggles that daily life presents.
I believe in an approach that depends on collaborations between therapist and client. YOU are the expert of your own life. I will be there to listen, encourage and help you to see see situations, events, or people from a new perspective. Together we will explore and fortify your emotional strengths and come up with new ways of approaching problems, figure out ways for you to feel better and achieve your goals.
Every client has the right to feel respected and cared for. Trust and confidence are at the heart of the relationship between us. All of our sessions will be held within a safe, supportive, mon-judgmental space.
