Support

It takes courage to ask for help…everyone needs support sometimes.  Whether you are going through hard times, have a difficult situation, or want to improve your life – I can provide the support you need.

My strengths as a therapist include: my ability to be patient and supportive, to see issues from the client’s perspective as well as from other points of view, and to problem solve.  I have 20+ years of clinical experience.  I am trained in many different approaches, and use those varied skills as appropriate.  I approach working with clients in a gentle yet honest way, respecting you as the expert in your life. 

You should feel safe and nurtured during your meetings with me, attended to in the moment.  Our meetings will be based on talk therapy, and may include psycho-education or “homework”.   I use humor when appropriate.  I especially like using the Enneagram as a tool to help you understand yourself and others.  I also use cognitive behavioral, family systems, and psychodynamic techniques.
