Creatively guiding individuals to a different perspective and outcome when their existing patterns and coping styles in life are not serving them. The most effective therapy or counseling is that which is a route to change and healing through self awareness. I strive to work towards that end in all the therapy I do, with families, couples and with individuals.
I have found that there is no more powerful tool for breaking old patterns and affecting real change than self knowledge. My approach as a therapist is most effective with couples who are having trouble communicating be it a new pattern or an old one, individuals who are facing issues of blocked creativity and those who are struggling with their identity.
I have a Master's in psychology and am a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC). My orientation is Emotional Focused Therapy (EFT) with a psychoanalytic bent. I work with adults and teens individually, providing therapy services for most emotional concerns and traumas that disrupt our daily lives and sense of well-being.

Services
Everyone experiences periods of stress, sadness, grief and conflict, so when you're feeling off it can be hard to know when it's time to see a professional about the problem.
Aside from suffering needlessly, those in distress may actually make the problem worse by avoiding professional help.
The earlier someone gets help, the easier it is to get through the problem.
Psychotherapy is a valuable process of self-discovery and changing course when things no longer seem to be working.
When the patterns and coping styles we develop earlier in life are no longer serving us or life experiences challenge our ability to effectively navigate the world, we often need a guide to help us get a different perspective and increase creativity thinking of the issues at hand.

What to expect in the first session?
I like to talk with clients on the phone or through email before scheduling the first session.
This allows me to make sure I'm the best fit for your needs, and vice versa.
During the initial conversation you'll tell me a briefly about what you are wanting to work on and where you would like to end up.
What should I expect during the first few appointments?
In the first appointment we will review the paperwork that you completed from your confirmation email and we will begin the process of getting to know you and what you're looking to work on more in depth.
