Life is full of change and the unexpected. Have you been blindsided by one of the many curveballs life can throw at you? Realigning after a huge change- be it the loss of a loved one, separation/divorce, job change, health shift, or even college graduation- can be a challenging process. I love to help people adjust, grow, and transform though these shifts, seeing the forest through the trees to come to a fuller, more centered perspective on all that life still has to offer. Finding our way back to peace and the restoration of joy can feel overwhelming and we could all use some support in this process.

My 27 years of experience as a counselor places me in a unique position to understand the complexities, struggles, and frustrations that often accompany the ever changing landscape of our lives. Sometimes these changes are the result of fluctuations in our relationships, or alterations in our environment, and sometimes, they're the re-emergence of old behaviors that may have been a stumbling block in the past. At other times, your life might suddenly lead you to a place where your problem is simply the need for a new "game plan", in order to facilitate greater achievement.

Naturally, as we live we develop ways of coping in an attempt to thrive. However, we sometimes face painful life experiences and become stuck, experience decreased self esteem, or strained relationships. We may have difficulty harnessing our inner strengths resulting in pain and confusion. Therapy can empower you to thrive during times of change.

Having had over 30 years of experience, I understand that different people respond to different approaches to therapy. We will work together to find solutions based on who you are. If you are looking to work with someone who is direct, concrete, and flexible, you may want to meet with me to explore how the patterns you may have formed in your life are no longer serving you.

In Person or Telehealth. I offer tangible tools to promote healing and change, and would like to partner with you on your path toward wellness. I believe there is not a single effective therapeutic approach, so I incorporate a variety of methods, including traditional talk therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and creative approaches including creative writing, poetry, and art. I have years of experience working with tweens, teens and adults who have struggled with anxiety, depression, loss, trauma, family issues and substance abuse recovery.

My Center for Progressive Treatment is best for substance-involved individuals and their loved ones who have not reached their goals with traditional treatment, especially those who are not inclined toward 12-step (AA or NA) approaches. We believe that you, the client, 1) know what treatment will work for you (you pick from a wide array of scientifically-proven treatments vs. the traditional idea that others should decide for you); 2) already have the power to change (vs. it comes from admitting powerlessness); and 3) are your own best source of motivation (vs. it comes from external pressure or a higher power).

Have you ever wondered whether therapy could be helpful? Has the idea of finding a provider or starting the process ever seemed scary or daunting? As a clinical psychologist, I understand the importance of building rapport and trust, as we pave the way for working together towards your goals and what you would like to get out of therapy.
