I'm here to support teenage youth, parents/families, and adults in meeting their emotional, psychological and practical challenges. If you're a teen struggling with school problems, family difficulties or hoping to improve your mood, confidence and relationships, I can assist you in breaking down obstacles and achieving your goals. If you're a parent trying to manage and communicate with your "coming of age" depressed or rebellious adolescent, I provide counsel and safe opportunities to explore the conflicts and confusion that block resolutions. If you're an adult, I use a multidisciplinary approach that meets your particular challenges by way of integrating conscious strengths with the many untapped qualities that lie undeveloped within you. With 30+ years experience, I bring many tools to our sessions, including both brief and long-term therapeutic strategies. Together, we work to identify underlying causes, create plans of action, and use a wide range of skills to break up old stuck patterns so we can increase your abilities to develop new and more fulfilling relationships and opportunities.
