Personal Statement
Life is complicated and human compassion and resilience are key. I believe that the therapeutic relationship can be a tremendous source of strength in helping people navigate life’s many challenges. By building a relationship based on trust, understanding, empathy, honesty and a dose of humor, I help clients explore what is getting in the way of what is possible. I am a big fan of slowing things down and looking at what’s working, what isn’t and how, together, we can find a practical and more fulfilling path forward.
