About me

As a licensed therapist with over three decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals through life's complex emotional landscapes. My practice focuses on helping clients navigate challenges such as depression, social anxiety, communication difficulties, and personal growth.

I offer a compassionate, nuanced approach that addresses a wide range of concerns including family conflicts, life transitions, workplace stress, and personal identity exploration. My therapeutic style is adaptable, meeting each client's unique needs with empathy and professional insight.

Drawing from extensive clinical experience, I provide supportive guidance for individuals struggling with isolation, self-esteem, panic attacks, and interpersonal dynamics. My goal is to help clients develop stronger coping strategies, enhance self-understanding, and create meaningful personal transformation.

I welcome individuals from all backgrounds and belief systems, committed to providing respectful, personalized care that honors each person's individual journey and potential for healing.

Betty listens well! She has a firm grasp of the issues that I share with her. I like that she recaps the session with me. It is reaffirming.
