About
Each of my clients is seen as unique, while also recognizing the collective nature of our human experiences and the ways systemic oppression, such as racism and classism, effect our lives and mental health. My goal is to engage with you in ways that are safe for you. Over the span of 45 years, 23 of which have been in private practice, I have worked with children, teens, families, couples, women and men individually in a variety of settings. I bring real talk, humor and compassion to my work and I view therapy as a conversation about life. My goal is to help you find your voice as you work to heal from the challenges of life.
My approach to therapy is cognitive/behavioral as well as the use of a holistic view of each client, valuing the roles that mind, body and spirit play in their life story. Humor, reflection and a sharing of personal stories is important because it helps to know that even seasoned therapists sometimes get the blues.
As the mother of a bi-racial daughter, a child of divorce and a part of the sex, drugs, and rock & roll generation. I understand the many complexities of life because I've lived them too. I look forward to helping you integrate lessons learned, identify your strengths, understand your life themes and heal from traumas.
