I am a licensed professional counselor in Connecticut with over 25 years of experience working as school counselor and in private practice. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, addiction issues, ADHD and anger management. I also helped many people who have experienced emotional abuse.
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic and rational-emotive counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!
