I work with my clients to focus on the areas in their lives that feel unbalanced or are not working well, so that they can live life with more self-awareness, clarity and confidence. The goal is to better manage work and school stress; improve relationships; find relief from anxiety and depression; overcome eating issues and other self-destructive ways, and unblock creativity, in a therapeutic environment that is warm and supportive.
We will embark together, to help you bring more of what you want and need into your life. Whether dealing with seemingly insurmountable problems, shifting moods, changing relationships, career problems or confronting lifelong obstacles, we will work together to make the changes you want and improve your quality of life.
My background in the arts and business enables me to be attuned to the problems and needs of both the creative person and the pressures of the workplace. Interpersonal issues at work or school, career transition planning, or blocks in creativity are areas where therapy may be useful and empowering.
