Philosophy

I believe that psychotherapy is a partnership between the therapist and client where we work together, in a safe, confidential atmosphere, to address the issues that brought you to therapy. I work with clients from diverse backgrounds who want help for many different problems.

Some people have specific issues, such as marital conflicts, questions about parenting or help dealing with major life transitions. Others are bothered by more general issues, such as longstanding feelings of anxiety, anger, sadness or a sense that something is missing in their lives.

Regardless of the initial problems, we will work together to identify, understand and change the uncomfortable feelings, self-defeating thoughts and behavior patterns that hold you back from resolving your issues and achieving a more productive and fulfilling life.
