Hello, What I love about my work is helping people to be and become the people they want to be. When we can look at the things that shape our lives, then we can make better choices about what to do next. That’s easier said than done. We may have to pay attention to things we weren’t aware of— or didn’t want to notice in the first place. It’s hard to change what you can’t acknowledge. Whether it’s in the private corners of your mind or the broad inequalities of society, it’s hard to look at life’...

Often, this plan includes enhancing knowledge, increasing self-awareness, and learning new skills. I offer an integration of therapeutic approaches, including relational (focusing on interpersonal interactions), mindfulness (emphasizing awareness and atte...

Entering therapy shows strength, courage and a commitment to change. To look inside oneself is not always easy, but is always worthwhile. When considering a potential therapist, credentials and special training are important. Ultimately, what helps people to heal and grow is a trusting relationship and positive connection between therapist and client. As a psychotherapist, I create a warm, safe environment in which clients feel listened to without judgment and responded to in a compass...
Most people who seek out therapy with me struggle with a narcissistic relationship that is no longer manageable. At first, many of us find narcissists to be charming or misunderstood, but over time these relationships make us feel isolated, hopeless, and resentful. Once we learn how to identify narcissistic behavior, we realize something has to change. If you have difficulty creating distance from the narcissist, you are not alone. Therapy can help. During your sessions, we will work together to...

I also help clients build healthy friendships and partnerships, explore ...
