Services

It is my belief that each person that enters my office is unique with an extraordinary story to tell. My practice specializes in providing individual counseling and psychotherapy for women and teen girls. My therapeutic style is warm, supportive, interactive and wholehearted. I am committed to providing a safe space for clients to trust, learn, heal and grow.

“There are only two days in the year that nothing can be done. One is called yesterday and the other is called tomorrow, so today is the right day to love, believe, do and mostly live.”   ~Dalai Lama

If you answered yes to any of the above questions, I can help!

My approach to therapy is holistic….focusing on body, mind and spirit.

I help women and teen girls:

  • build upon their strengths
  • gain insight, fresh perspectives & new ways of thinking
  • learn new skills & strategies to handle life’s challenges
  • heal emotional pain
  • fully realize their potential

I draw upon a number of different theories, perspectives and techniques including strengths-based theory, positive psychology, cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, humanistic psychology, solution-focused therapy, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)/Tapping, mindfulness and meditation.
