Philosophers, poets, religious and spiritual leaders, all talk about the human condition. But what does it mean for the rest of us? Everyone runs into situations that produce anxiety, depression, disappointment, a need to make difficult decisions, tension in relationships, and other "discomforts" that we wish would go away. Sometimes we figure out how to get through these situations on our own but sometimes we need a little help.

MY PHILOSOPHY: I'm often asked why people do the things we do and my best answer is because whatever it is we keep doing is working in some way.or at least we convince ourselves it's working.
So human beings keep doing things that are ineffective, hurtful, or just plain destructive to themselves or others until they realize they're getting nowhere fast.
To help you get off the giant hamster wheel of life I use several therapeutic techniques to raise your awareness of how you hinder your own personal satisfaction; help you change the way you think about yourself, others, and/or situations; increase your motivation to engage in changing your behavior and beliefs; and help you set and follow through on achieving personal goals.

MY PHILOSOPHY: Therapy is a delicate balance of acceptance and change.
I use a person-centered approach to create a validating environment in which a person can open up, feel genuinely cared for, and develop a trusting therapeutic relationship.
At the same time, I can help guide you through the complex process of change.
I can offer skills and techniques for improving your life in the short term while the work of learning how to change your thinking takes place.
I primarily practice Dialectical Behavioral Therapy(DBT), and also use techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing (MI).
