Are you unappreciated? Do you have trouble with intimacy and relationships? Do you feel unfulfilled? I believe that choosing a psychotherapist is an important--and often difficult--decision. I believe in, and practice, psychotherapy that it is interactive: I respond to what my clients tell me; I offer advice when appropriate; and provide guidance for deeper understanding when this can be helpful. I offer lifestyle and choice-supportive, affirming, goal-directed psychotherapy; promoting competence and self-assurance in day-to-day problems; and insight-oriented exploration for greater self-awareness, understanding, and self-actualization.
