I am now providing the full range of counseling and hypnotherapy services to you via an ACA compliant, secure video platform or via your telephone. I continue to bring the broad range of training and experience to my work as a therapist from over the past 30 years. You can now have personal, professional counseling & hypnotherapy services in the comfort and convenience of your own home, office, or even your car.
I have learned that each person has a unique background, unique problems, and unique strengths. I've learned the importance of gaining a thorough understanding of my clients' situation & the issues with which they are struggling, and what their goals are. I work to help each client cope with their life stressors, and to tap into the conscious & unconscious resources that will help them heal & grow, empowering them to make changes that they want for themselves and achieve their goals.
I feel honored to walk beside you on your journey and will help you reach your best self. Life is challenging and having a safe space to process hard emotions and develop a plan going forward is the goal of my practice. I have a special interest in working with adolescent girls, women and men in life transitions-career change, new parents, empty nester stage, divorce etc. Transitions provide an extra level of stress to life and I am here to help you plot out your future plan and to manage emotions around this difficult time.
I believe that every single human being is inherently of great value and worthy of dignity and respect. Once they begin to believe that about themselves, I believe it allows for significant change to me made. I help my clients get to this point by creating a safe space where they can freely share without fear of being judged or criticized. Together, we identify the obstacles that they are facing and collaboratively create goals and outcomes that they would like to work towards.
