If you are still feeling unsure, speaking with me by phone or in person will also help you feel if my style is right for you; I offer a free 20-minute consultation. Most prefer to simply start with an initial session. Or we can schedule a consultation with the option to continue into a session if desired. With my warm, empathetic style and calm voice of experience and expertise, I find clients quickly feel at ease in the safe space I provide: a place of acceptance and care.

With me, therapy comes with understanding and warm acceptance, usually with laughter, and sometimes with healthy tears of release. After a session, clients generally tell me they feel lighter, freer, and more positive and empowered. I listen warmly, but I do more than that: I am solutions focused and problem solving in my approach, and provide concrete tools. We work together to collaboratively clarify your needs and goals. We gain meaningful insights about what has been happening and where you are in your life and relationships. I provide psychoeducation and coach you in the use of new tools. Together, we achieve changes toward your greater health and happiness.
