 I offer respectful, collaborative therapy relationships that emphasize choice, personal change and foster courage, awareness, and loving interpersonal relationships. I provide general clinical services to adolescents and adults experiencing anger, depression, anxiety, bereavement, relationship and marital difficulties. I love to work with those who long for more fulfilling relationships and lives, and who, with support, are willing to take some risks in order to achieve their goals.

Areas of special interest

people who have had traumatic childhood or adult experiences;
those coping with the psychological/emotional impact of cultural and/or identity issues in family, employment and/or educational settings;
intercultural and inter-ethnic couples work. 
I welcome and enjoy working with people from all backgrounds and with diverse ways of living.
