Fall is a season of letting go. You are someone who feels stuck in an area of your life. You want to grow, feel an itch to make a change, or need guidance in meeting your goals. You are a high schooler, college student, or an adult who is going through a transition (widower, caregiver, divorcee, or looking to change careers). That's where I come in to work with you on your goals. You will work on identifying your goals, understanding obstacles (the itty bitty shitty committee we all have in our heads - not good enough, not smart enough, etc), and we strategize.

I have a warm and humorous style. I use solution-focused goal setting, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (looking at how thoughts, feelings, and behavior impact each other), and mindfulness practices such as writing, vision boards, self-care tools, and tips to reduce overwhelm. I do have a small dog, Wiggles, in the office. I believe transformation is possible — even in life’s hardest seasons. With over 30 years of experience, I offer flexible, supportive care for teens, college students, and adults throughout CT, NY, and PA. Whether you're navigating high school, finding your way through college, managing a life transition, or simply feeling stuck, I meet you where you are.

Get ready to laugh! I try to make life strategy a fun and creative process. Yes, we will cover serious topics as well. Therapy has to be a fit, and finding a person you are comfortable with is essential! I have 31 years of experience in mental health and healthcare. Making the first call isn't easy, but you are WORTH it!
