PSYCHOTHERAPY can provide a safe environment to focus on the growth and healing required of us to become the best we can be in all roles and aspects of our life. 
For close to thirty years, my clients have received an individualized approach on issues such as depression & anxiety, dependencies with alcohol, food, relationships & sex, loss, grief & bereavement, trauma, codependency, intimacy, separation & divorce. 
In addition to a variety of modalities and interventions, sometimes, medication is included as a treatment option and is prescribed by a personal physician or consulting psychiatrist. 
Primarily, I work with individuals and couples and also provide psychotherapy groups focusing on a specific topic. Currently, I work only with adults, twenty-one years and older.
