​Yes! YOUR LIFE CAN BE EASIER, RICHER and MORE FULFILLING​​​​
​
The challenges we encounter in life can be approached as opportunities for growth. Everything we live through - every accomplishment or regret, every exhilarating risk or disappointing failure, every deep attachment or broken heart - is an invitation to develop greater confidence, connection and aliveness. It is my privilege to accompany people through this learning process, and to shift the focus from problems and symptoms to strengths, meaning and resilience.
​​​ALLOW ME TO BE YOUR PARTNER IN CHANGE
Rarely does life go as planned. We all face loss, uninvited changes and challenges, or confusing and discouraging patterns in ourselves. You may have a major life decision to confront, or an important transition to navigate. You may feel lonely, or stuck and directionless, or held back by self-doubt and shame. Maybe you're drinking too much, or your career is unsatisfying; maybe your marriage is unstable or stifling, maybe you're uncomfortable in your body or feel haunted by pain from the past.​

Most everyone has mixed feelings about therapy; ambivalence is part of the process. It takes courage to enter a stranger's office and reveal your vulnerabilities; but you deserve a place and time dedicated to what matters most to you, a chance to expand your awareness and sense of possibility, and the opportunity to grow into a more whole and vibrant version of yourself. ​​​​

PEOPLE DO CHANGE
Effective psychotherapy is a kind of sculpting process, gradually revealing a version of you that is fully, comfortably your authentic self. I'm an actively engaged therapist, with an informal, inquisitive and responsive style. I don't just listen and nod and turn the questions around on you; I also do some of the talking. I'm as invested as you are in knowing you deeply, understanding you, and empowering you to find greater ease, hope and trust in yourself. I provide direct and compassionate feedback aimed at developing your awareness and cultivating your motivation toward positive change. ​​
