Are you having trouble with the difficult people in your life? Would you like your partner to do more of some things and less of others? Are there people in your life you'd like to say no to? I help my clients discover clarity in these difficult life situations and resolve their emotional conflict and confusion. Do you want to make your home a happier place, or find your way back to love? Are you sad and worried all the time? Through talking together we can alleviate painful symptoms and improve relationships and increase self esteem. I work specifically in the areas of managing depression and anxiety, conflict in relationships, trauma, effective expression of emotion, and stress reduction. My theoretical approach to counseling is psychodynamic combined with over 25 years of practical experience of working with people with a very wide range of emotional issues. I love the process of dynamic communication with my clients as we learn together how to resolve the therapy issue and grow beyond it. From this perspective I help my clients understand that their issues are opportunities to learn more about themselves, and become more creative in their lives.
