Sometimes the struggles we face in life can be overwhelming. As a therapist, I believe that we all possess inner strength and abilities. I will work with you to sort out issues, tap into your own inner strength and use it to work toward resolution. Counseling is a way of talking through your problems in order to begin resolving them. Depression, anxiety, stress, grief, life transitions, divorce, interpersonal relationships are among the issues we work with. Years of experience as a School Social Worker give me added insight in working with behavioral and emotional issues of children, adolescents and families. Children with school difficulties, separation issues, and defiant behaviors have been successfully treated, as well as out-of-control, self mutilating or depressed adolescents, adults with mood disorders and life stressors and adults facing issues around aging, dementia, disabilities, nursing home care. I work with families impacted by these issues as well.
