As a private practice psychotherapist I bring with me a 25 year career of consulting with people facing life altering circumstances.  It is this history that  inspired me to return to school and pursue a degree in Psychology.  My experience of witnessing the reappearance of hope for the future when people have faced prolonged conflict, financial strain, illness, grief, and shattered dreams influences my work.   I am interested in building therapeutic relationships that go beyond problems and move into a space of discovering more about the possibilities ahead of the people I meet with.
