| Practice Description: |
Do you feel like you're burdening your friends and family members with your troubles? And you're still left with your problems? Though your loved ones try to help, they aren't trained to deal with the underlying issues.
Through a warm and caring connection, I'll guide you as we explore issues that interfere with satisfaction in love, work, and play. So, if you're dealing with a difficult boss or the challenges of parenting, trying to start a relationship or mourning a loss, experiencing a creative block or feeling a general dissatisfaction in life, call me for reality-based therapy to help you find the joy in everyday life.
I provide individual, couples, and group therapy for adults at all stages of life with a wide range of emotional and life problems. My interactive, reality-based psychodynamic approach emphasizes forming a trusting relationship to uncover and understand the positive and negative factors from your past that shape your present.
I specialize in relationship issues, depression, anxiety, and parenting concerns. My style incorporates active and compassionate listening, collaborative exploration, and a ready sense of humor. We'll work together to make your life more satisfying.
