NOTE: Currently, my practice is limited to seeing individuals on Saturdays only. I look forward helping you find more effective ways of dealing with the conflicts and changes of everyday life. If you struggle with unhealthy coping strategies such as dependency on substances/behaviors, seem to repeat the same self-defeating patterns in relationships, have difficulty managing intense, overwhelming feelings or often feel misunderstood while trying to communicate, I can help you alter underlying patterns and develop tools that lead to enduring change.For over a decade I have helped people heal early life trauma & family violence, recover from addiction, manage anger/anxiety, deal with depression, live with disabilities & chronic illness, work through crises of identity & meaning, as well as navigate the grief/losses associated with major life transitions.My approach is integrative and addresses the many complex, diverse cultural factors that affect each individual. I believe that our early/important life relationships and related losses/traumatic events have a great impact and influence on our current way of viewing the world and dealing with people, and can re-emerge with current circumstantial challenges.
