With over twenty-five years of experience, I believe that the issues we face can be dealt with by choosing how we view them. I use a combination of cognitive behavioral therapy and rational living therapy to help clients determine what they see as issues and how they want to manage them. I focus on helping clients minimize or eliminate problem behaviors and thoughts and increase positive coping skills, thinking skills and day to day management skills. I am a straight forward, conversational therapist with a dry sense of humor. My motivation is your improvement and your release from the areas where you are stuck.
My specialties are anxiety, depression, substance use, anger management, couple's issues and adjustment issues.
I have worked with a number of different populations from children to adults, individuals to couples with a specific focus on substance issues, anger management, depression, anxiety and daily life challenges. I am currently actively licensed in Pennsylvania, Michigan and Virginia (Telehealth and self-pay only for Michigan and Virginia clients),
