The heart of my work combines gentleness, strength, and evidence-based approaches with an intuitive understanding. I use inner and outer resources to support people, and sometimes laughter and irony along the way. Attending to banished voices, lost dreams, inner-child work, saboteurs, and avoidance helps to get people where they want to go. I utilize EMDR, have worked in grief support and inpatient. In addition, applying well-known factors in the neuropsychology of learning optimizes change. In practice, it all comes together using structure, flow, and clinical assessment.

Counseling and Social Work have been my vocation for more than 40 years. Areas of expertise include Grief, Depression and Anxiety, Relationship and Trauma. I have worked within Mental Health, Medical and Hospice environments as well as Private Practice. I am warm, supportive and respectful and build upon one's strengths in the therapeutic process.

Did you recently suffer a breakup in a relationship? Are you forever choosing wrong partners? How are your relationships in general, even if they are not romantic? Are you suicidal, angry, depressed, anxious, worried, suffering from past trauma you cannot shake? Are you repeatedly struggling with addiction? Are you questioning your sexual orientation? Are seeking acceptance? Is your self-esteem suffering? Do you struggle from religious abuse? So many issues can overwhelm us, but there is ALWAYS a positive solution.

Do you and your partner get into the same fight over and over without it ever being resolved? Have you tried talking about it and feel like your partner doesn't listen? Do you feel like you’ve tried everything but nothing seems to be working? If so, you’ve come to the right place. I work with couples and individual adults dealing with a myriad of issues. My goal is to help you gain insight to your issues and figure out where you're stuck. From there, we will create a ‘toolbox’ of strategies to use so you can experience more satisfaction in your life and relationships.

I have been practicing therapy for 30 years in Tucson. My focus is on health and wellness, creating joy with purpose and hope.

What's holding you back from living your best life? Do you sometimes feel stuck? Have trouble managing your thoughts and emotions? Life can be challenging, and I understand that. I believe we all have the innate strength within us to overcome life's struggles, but sometimes it is helpful to have some extra support. As your therapist, I am here to work collaboratively with you to become the best version of yourself. I am warm and connect with my clients on a deep level. I can help you get excited about the future and all of the great possibilities that life has to offer.

I have a commitment to work that furthers the growth and wholeness of individuals and facilitates individuals and families in identifying strengths and increasing levels of functioning. I treat adults, children, and families and I prefer to involve parents when treating their children.

Are you tired of living with pain from a difficult childhood, a recent trauma, or challenging relationships? Even if you've spent years in talk therapy, your body might still hold onto this pain. Much of our current suffering stems from past disturbing events stuck in our nervous system. Conditions like anxiety, depression, and PTSD often arise from these unresolved issues, leading to reactions like anger, shutting down, building emotional walls, or people-pleasing. Healing these wounds is essential for moving forward.

I believe in the healing power of laughter and the importance of nurturing a warm, accepting environment where clients are comfortable, at ease, and safe. Therapy has the capacity to help each of us on our journey through life. Changes in our lives, unresolved past events, and worries about the future can severely deplete our emotional resources. These effect how we care for ourselves and others.

As we journey through life, many factors blend to form who we are today. When we experience hurts, abuses, traumatic events, or unhealthy relationships we learn to find survival mechanisms that served their purpose at the time but are no longer effective in the present. I use a client-centered approach tailored to meet your individual needs to find the best path to healing. I chose counseling as a career because I have had a life-long passion for helping people.

Life changes and so do we. Life challenges us to adjust and change with it. Sometimes life can be overwhelming and debilitating, leading to uncharacteristic ways of coping including substance abuse and coping behaviors that damage our well being, peace of mind, and relationships. Fresh Path tele-therapy offers a safe, non-judgmental space to explore issues and build new positive mindful strategies to adapt, heal, and meet life's changes and challenges from the comfort of your own home.
