Welcome to my website. In my work as a psychotherapist I help clients thrive. Usually that involves some exploration of their past experiences and their beliefs about themselves and the world so that we can begin to move in the direction of their goals. I help my clients get grounded in their bodies and stay present for their lives and create what they desire.

It is my experience that once emotional safety and rapport are established in the therapist-client relationship, clients tend to feel freer to be themselves perhaps for the first time in their lives.  I encourage them to get curious about themselves and to look carefully with fewer judgments at what they want in relationships, career, family, sexuality, prosperity, health, spirituality and lifestyle. I help my clients accept themselves as unique individuals and assist them in removing obstacles to their peace, happiness and success as they define it.

I use the relationship in the therapy room between myself and my client to help better inform our work. Inevitably issues that arise in the outside world present themselves within the therapy relationship and offer the profound opportunity to re-work old wounds, to gain insight and to have a "corrective emotional experience."

In many instances, clients feel worse before they feel better during the therapy process. This can be the case as old painful memories get stirred up. However, by increasing one's tolerance for difficult emotions, decreasing impulsivity and increasing one's capacity for hope, joy, humor, love and aliveness, a deeper and more constant sense of self can be achieved. Clients often share that having a trusted and safe witness to their lives makes all the difference in the healing process.

As clients better understand their pasts and have more positive emotional experiences in the present, they tend to have more confidence, ease and self acceptance. They tend to trust their inner voice and own their power to create a life worth living. This potential is what excites me about my work.
