Biography
Most of my work as a therapist is with adults, including older adults, who are working through the weight of past experiences and want something to actually shift. In more than 26 years of outpatient practice, I've sat with people in office settings and over telehealth, and I've done the harder work too: intensive outpatient counseling with families, and hospital-based crisis care for people who were genuinely at risk. That range has taught me not to flinch from difficult material.
A lot of what I do involves guilt and shame that people are still carrying from things that happened long ago. I take a strength-based approach, which means I'm looking for what's already working in you rather than cataloging what's broken. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a big part of how I help people notice and reshape the thought patterns that keep them stuck. The first session matters most to me, because that's where I get to understand your actual story before we decide anything. From there, we set the direction together, and I keep the work focused on what matters to you rather than a script I brought in.
Expect me to be present, honest, and steady, and to check in about whether the pace feels right. The first step is just a conversation about what's been going on; we sort out the plan together once I understand where you're starting from.
