I believe that every person has the inner ability to bring about their own healing and growth, but does not always have the knowledge and tools to do so. As a therapist, I work alongside you to support your ability to access that part of you that is capable of letting go and moving forward.

My focus is on giving you the guidance and tools to name and access your strengths, recognize your self-worth, and achieve the goals you have set for yourself. I use a number of different modalities based on your needs to attain the growth you are seeking.

Throughout this process our work together will honor and support your autonomy and dignity to the highest level possible despite whatever challenges you may be experiencing. These may be related to anxiety, depression, grief and loss (including the loss of pets), chronic conditions, dementia, caregiver distress, the aging process, or some other challenge you might be facing. I strive to create a safe environment for growth recognizing that self-worth is not defined by the obstacles a person is facing.

I am also available to consult with family members and caregivers dealing with the losses and changes they are witnessing as a loved one ages. I can assist with developing coping skills for caregivers, future planning to help you prepare for what may come, working with a loved one’s behavioral expressions of dementia, and end of life choices, as well as other issues you may be facing.
