Welcome and thank you for visiting my site,

I provide individual, family, and group counseling to preschoolers, school-aged children, adolescents, young adults, and adults. My approach to therapy is practical, warm, and collaborative. Having been a therapist for over 35 years, I have a wealth of experience working with all age groups coping with issues that range from everyday family concerns and adjustments to severe distress and trauma.
My life’s work has been devoted to helping....
Families resolve conflicts, strengthen relationships, open communication, & raise healthy families
Parents navigate transitions - the birth of a child, the Terrible Twos, the turbulent teens, an empty nest ....
Children learn how to express themselves respectfully and cope with feelings
Teens gain self acceptance, discover their natural strengths, and practice self-care
Young Adults find their path in life, deal with stress, or develop assertiveness
Adults heal life’s hurts and self-defeating patterns, and make lasting positive changes
Divorcing Families weather family changes with dignity and collaborative regard
Step Families find enjoyment and compassion for one another
