I am a Licensed Professional Counselor & Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of CT with 20 years of experience in the mental health field. My area of expertise has been with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, anger, trauma, grief , self esteem, and family & relationship issues. This has been through my work providing individual, family, couples and group therapy with the adult population in both a clinic and a private practice setting. I believe that creating a safe environment for my client and developing a caring relationship is critical to a successful therapy. My style of counseling is non-judgmental, compassionate and providing an open and therapeutic one. My counseling approach is solution focused, strength based, cognitive behavioral and client centered therapy. I also enjoy spending time with my family & friends, swimming, yoga, listening to all types of music and enjoy watching the latest Netflix shows/movies. Change is possible and you do not have to do it alone. I look forward for the opportunity to collaborate and support you in your therapeutic journey.

"Whatever opens us is not as important as what it opens" Mark Nepo I have been working in the field of counseling for nearly 27 years. I have often seen my role as joining others for a brief time during their life's journey assisting as they either discover or create a path of fulfillment in life. Throughout my career, I have walked alongside people struggling with grief, loss, including pet loss, addiction, and LGBTQ related issues. I have walked with many through the landscape of shame, guilt, and fear because these are often the places where wounds reside. My counseling style is such that I view each of us as an unfolding story. I strive to hear your story, see where you are, hear what you seek, and collaborate in choosing a desired path. While my practice is predominately based on humanistic and existential theory, I often refer to the work developed by adult children of dysfunctional families known as ACOA. I realize not all needs for support or guidance require deep dives into self. In fact, I found the most profound and common needs are to be heard and to matter. Regardless of the issue, you are presently faced with, may this issue become your teacher.
