For more than 25 years, I've been a licensed family and marriage therapist offering compassionate, competent and convenient therapeutic services to couples, individuals, adolescents, and families.
You will find me understanding and supportive, providing reflections and questions to guide you in managing your challenges and creating changes you desire.
I offer a safe place to explore your issues about:
* Transitions
* Relationships
* Separations
* Employment
* Addictions
* Stepfamilies
* Depression
* Parenting
* Stress
Our work together can help you improve your communication skills, increase self-esteem, better the quality of your relationships, and learn how to set and follow through with goals.
My style is interactive, and because I've been trained extensively in solution-focused therapy, much of the work I perform is shorter term than "traditional" therapy.
Also, unlike traditional therapy, counseling sessions are not necessarily once a week; we are able to make appointments based on your goals and your schedule.
If you have questions, kindly e-mail or call me.
Question and answer
Q. What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?
A. Why come to therapy?
Most people come to therapy when they want to talk to a neutral person about an issue or issues in their life. A therapist is trained to work with you to help you find solutions to your problem.
How long do I have to go?
It depends on the type of therapy you go to. The work I do is solution-focused so it tends to be shorter than traditional therapy.
How often do you schedule appointments?
It depends on your schedule and the issues we are working on. Some clients come weekly, some every other week, some monthly and sometimes "as needed".
How do I set up an appointment?
Just call (510-527-4011) and we can first see if I am the right fit for you. If yes, we'll schedule a convenient time that works. I have day and evening appointments available.
