Relaxed, eclectic approach to problem solving

I have been in practice for over 40 years and over time my approach has become a relaxed, eclectic mix of therapeutic approaches to help an individual identify, understand and find solutions to the problems he or she or they experience in the present environment that may or may not have roots in past history. Those problems might include depression, anxiety, grief, loss, LGBTQIA issues, trauma, divorce, relationships, parenting or work stress. Every client I meet has a unique story to tell and I want to help you tell yours.
