I am a graduate of Bryn Mawr College of Social Work and Social Research Masters Program. Since then, I have worked in adoption, with hospice, and with a variety of people with different problems in my private practice of 25 years. Some of these include relationship counseling, individual counseling, obesity, eating disorders, depression, anxiety, chronic illness, alcoholism, drug addiction, women's issues, and geriatrics. Working with people to be the best that they strive to be is always the only goal that I have. I will help you discover what is right with you. We will use your strengths to make you the best you can be. It only takes a serious commitment from you. Sometimes we may have to dig a little deeper, and that is OK, too. There is no "cookie-cutter" counseling! However, I will always treat you with the respect that you deserve, and encourage you to use the intelligence that you have within you to resolve your issues. It takes courage to change; it often takes a person in emotional pain as well. Whatever has brought you here, I salute you for taking that first step! I look forward to helping you on your journey as you find out how small changes in behavior and thinking can lead to big changes in your life, one step at a time. I am a Certified Diplomate through the National Psychotherapy Association, a Masters Addictions Counselor through the National Association of Addiction Counselors, a member of long-standing in the National Association of Social Workers, and a Masters Addictions Counselor through the National Association of Forensic Counselors. Let's get started on your being the best that you want to be! You are incredibly and beautifully complicated, and you will be impressed with all of your complexities that we will discover together as you begin your journey of self-discovery! Jan

I work with adolescents and adults who are feeling overwhelmed, emotionally stuck, or disconnected from themselves or others. Many people I work with are navigating anxiety, trauma, or long-standing relational patterns and are looking for a space where they can slow down, feel understood, and begin making sense of what they’re experiencing. My approach is trauma-informed and mindfulness-based, integrating insight-oriented and practical strategies to support emotional regulation, self-awareness, and meaningful change. Therapy with me is collaborative and paced intentionally, with a strong emphasis on safety, curiosity, and respect for your boundaries. I value creativity, learning, music, and time in nature, and I believe connection—to ourselves and to others—is central to healing. My hope is to support you in developing greater clarity, resilience, and a deeper sense of alignment in your life.
