Counseling

Are you feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck or depressed?

Do you want to make lasting change in your life, your relationships or career?

Welcome to my website.

By the time many people contact me, they have often been struggling to make things better on their own. Unfortunately, many of us are led to believe that seeking help is a sign of weakness. I believe that we all need support at times - especially when feeling isolated, stuck or alone.

Reaching out for help indicates that you’ve decided to create a better life for yourself, however finding a therapist who is the “right fit” can be a challenge. To assist you with this process I have provided information about who I am and how I work with people to reach their goals.

As a licensed psychotherapist I help people achieve positive change in their personal lives, careers and intimate relationships.  Since 1990, I have provided a safe and confidential setting dedicated to personal growth and healing. I have created a holistic therapeutic approach that integrates traditional and nontraditional therapies focusing on the whole person – body, mind and spirit.

During our work together my intention is to be as compassionate and present as possible.  In contrast to therapists who appear overly-clinical or distant, my approach is nurturing, while also direct and interactive. I will participate genuinely and actively, rather than simply listening passively.   

I can’t fully articulate the scope of my psychotherapy practice here, so if you have questions about your particular needs or concerns please call me. Below I have listed primary areas of specialization. I have also included specific information about my experience with Relationships, Codependency and Intimacy and EMDR Therapy, Trauma and PTSD Therapy.

My areas of specialization include:

Depression & Bipolar Disorder Relationships & Intimacy
Sexual Abuse & Trauma Anxiety & Panic Attacks
Mid-life & Life Purpose Issues Grief and Loss
Self-esteem EMDR Therapy

Relationships, Codependency and Intimacy

Helping people who are struggling with the following issues in their intimate relationships is one of my primary specialties:

  • codependent or addictive relationship patterns

  • confidence and self-esteem

  • identifying and expressing needs

  • establishing appropriate boundaries

  • self-sabotage or self-medication

  • identifying and changing dysfunctional patterns from our first families

For more information on relationships please see my Marriage and Couples Counseling page.

EMDR, Trauma Therapy and Treatment for PTSD

I have twenty years of experience helping people heal trauma and other difficult life experiences – past or present.  I consider EMDR the most effective therapy for rapidly resolving traumatic experiences such as emotional, physical and sexual abuse.  The  effectiveness of EMDR has been clinically proven in the treatment of PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) and panic attacks.  It is also extremely effective in helping people who are struggling with grief and loss, depression and anxiety.  Please see my EMDR page for more information.

If you have additional questions about how I can be of service, please feel free to contact me for a free phone consultation
