On Becoming a Therapist

I’ve had an ongoing fascination and curiosity around the human experience since an early age and was drawn to helping others. My friends often came to me for support when they were struggling with a problem.

Later, when it came time to choose a career, becoming a therapist seemed like a natural extension of who I was.

I love being a therapist. I am constantly amazed and inspired at the resilience of the human spirit. It is an incredible experience each day to bear witness to my clients’ struggles and be part of their healing. 

Why Choose Me as Your Therapist

1. I have over 25 years experience in human service work, 15 of those as a therapist. During this time, I have worked with individuals, couples, parents and children with a wide variety of problems. These have included stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, family violence, and relationship struggles.
   I have also worked extensively with parents and children around issues of children’s development and behavioral problems.

5. I use research-backed methods of individual and couples therapy that are known to get positive results. These methods have helped individuals and couples all over the world overcome their problems and have better lives.
