Life can be very challenging at times and our usual way of managing doesn't work as effectively as it used to. Our coping skills aren't helping us to feel a sense of control and well-being and we end up feeling overwhelmed, stuck, anxious, we can't sleep well, we under eat or overeat, experience mood changes and possible difficulties managing work, relationships and home life. I am committed to helping you understand what you are going through, developing strategies to make changes, assisting you with stress reduction so that you feel more comfortable within yourself and your life. I have 32 years in the counseling field working with women, men, adolescents and children individually and in groups. I employ a supportive, nonjudgmental approach with my clients. Together we create a safe respectful atmosphere where I enjoy helping you to both recognize your strengths and confront your obstacles. I have extensive training in stress management and cognitive behavioral therapy and incorporate that in short and long term work with you. I am a certified biofeedback therapist and offer biofeedback and mindfulness techniques. I have experience working with a wide range of issues, including depression, anxiety, stress related disorders, Type A personalities and relationships.
