It is my life's work to help people understand themselves so that they can make better choices and spend their time wisely. Time is our most precious asset. You can't save it, you can't make more of it, and you don't know how much you have. Therefore it is important to be aware of the fact that the most important relationship we ever have, is with ourselves. A critical, scolding, internal voice is a main component of depression. I have over 40 years of experience, with many years of advanced supervision. I always suggest to meet one time to determine if we are comfortable with one another and can work together.

I struggled immensly with anxiety and depression for many years. In my teens and twenties I was in and out of emergency rooms because of panic attacks. In 1997 I started studying mindfulness meditation with Jon Kabat-Zinn and everything changed from that point forward. Once I learned how to have better control over my thoughts and emotions, anxiety and depression became much easier to deal with. I became a therapist and mindfulness teacher to help others gain the same skills.

Are you looking for a psychotherapist during these tough times? I work with children and adults who struggle with behavioral issues, ADHD/learning disorders, divorce, depression, anxiety, trauma, and chronic pain.

It may be time to tap into your inner strength, and I am here to help.

I have over a decade of experience working with individuals who struggle with substance use disorders and mental health issues. I am certified in dialectical behavior therapy and passionate about helping clients make positive growth changes. My job is to work myself out of a job by helping people identify and achieve goals.

I have experiences helping individuals and couples struggling with anxiety, depression, abuse, trauma, PTSD, and the effects of early childhood attachment related issues; and have been extensively trained in utilizing evidence-based practices such as EMDR, DBT, and TF-CBT.
Do you feel the quality of your life could be better? Have you experienced difficult life stressors that you continue to struggle with? Do you experience negative beliefs about yourself and your relationships with others? While the benefits of counseling can last for years, it shouldn't take years before you begin to experience these benefits. Depending on various factors, using evidence-based practices can provide significant changes rather quickly, within months or even weeks.
