I utilize an integrative counseling approach that includes aspects of Solution Focused Brief Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. With a strong belief that not “one size fits all,” I am able to meet you where you are at. I am excited to join the clinician team at Kairos Wellness Collective and to widen my treatment scope in working with individuals with OCD. I am particularly interested in empowering clients to talk back to their negative thoughts, and establish a strong positive self-regard. I am passionate about helping clients take the reins of their own healing.

Specializing in Teens & Young Adults: However isolated they appear, I hold a strong belief that young adult emotional and behavioral struggles are primarily a reaction to family influences. To fully support this population in reaching their potential, their challenges will need to be looked upon in the context of family, so to identify how such strife continues to be reinforced. This systemic approach to therapy paves the way for greatest insight to be gained by those who really matter, allowing for symptom reduction and ultimately greater relational harmony.

For 30 years, I have helped clients overcome depression, anxiety, anger, stress, relationship conflicts, ADD, addictions, workplace, and motivation problems. I am a very interactive, direct (often with humor) and solution focused therapist who challenges clients to instigate the change they want to see. I help clients develop skills in approaching discomfort rather than avoiding. Using cognitive strategies, I can help you change negative thinking to positive. I help clients express their healthiest emotions rather than using emotions to defend or manipulate. I encourage exercise and mindfulness for optimal living.
