Bilingual in English and American Sign Language.
Things have a way of not working out the way they we thought they would. The stories of our lives begin in the families we are given with all of their foibles and experiences. Pages that become chapters of pain, trauma or loss can engulf the one that feels trapped in the narrative. After a plot twist of epic proportions, I left a 16-year career in the intelligence community and began a new chapter. I’ve had to confront the sources, rewrite the narrative, consult the author and find myself in the pages. The refinement process can be a horrific one but in the truth, freedom is found. Together, we can find healing.

I am fluent in both American Sign Language and spoken English with the ability to work closely with deaf, hard-of-hearing, and hearing individuals.
You may be struggling with the following questions: What is stopping me from living a fulfilled and balanced life? What is my value/worth? Am I on the right path? Why do I feel anxious for no reason? Why is it difficult for me to adapt to change? Why can't I connect with my partner? The focus of my work is helping individuals develop healthier relationships with themselves and the people in their lives. My philosophy is represented in Steve Marboli's statement: "The power to change your life lies in the simplest of steps".

I am fluent in American Sign Language (native fluency) and in English.
The road of life is like a journey that sometimes has speedbumps. Inevitably, when we keep traveling we can wear down. Counseling and therapy are like the pit stops to fix or replace what has been broken. Supporting individuals in their life journey is what I offer, where persons are able to evaluate, try new things, and receive encouragement toward making change. After all, counseling is the process of change. I am also trained in pastoral counseling and offer support to boost emotional and spiritual well-being.

I am a Licensed Psychologist with over 20 years of experience. A certified IMAGO, Gottman, Equine Assisted and Diplomat in Sex Therapy, we will talk openly and candidly about your life.

I work best with clients ready to make a change but haven't yet figured out the best course of action. My agency name, Inertia Counseling, is founded on the notion that if we are stuck emotionally, we tend to stay stuck emotionally unless we make a conscious effort to change. Like Newton's Law of Inertia, once we start our process of changing how we think and act, that change gathers momentum and we can really change our lives for the better. Get moving... Stay moving... Change your life!

It is important to have a safe space to express your true feelings and process your experiences in life. Therapy is a perfect space to do that without judgment and at your own pace. There are many different approaches to therapy for each client, and one size does not fit all. I like to use a client-centered approach as I believe in giving the client the agency to feel in control of their therapeutic experience. I use various approaches such as CBT and mindfulness, to create an environment and experience that is individualized and beneficial to the client’s goals and expectations.

A client who would be a good fit for my services is likely a teen, tween, or adult who may be struggling with depression, anxiety, ADHD, ASD, neurodivergence, identity issues, difficulty finding providers fluent in ASL, the effects of trauma, and/or part of the LGBTQIA+ community. In outpatient therapy, internal motivation is important; I also hold the understanding that motivation can take time to build.
