I have a diverse background in mental health and my private practice is conveniently located off I-235. Most therapists can provide the therapy types listed, but it takes focus and good listening skills to discern how to effectively "help" others.

I place a large emphasis on understanding an individual's relationships and view the therapy relationship as the primary vehicle for change. I believe that through the therapy relationship individuals can work through difficult emotions, learn adaptive information/skills, and increase self-knowledge in order to achieve positive change in their life.

I started my career working several years on a dual diagnosis unit, which provided me with a strong foundation in working with people facing both mental health and addictions issues. I believe anyone who desires it can benefit from therapy and have appreciated working with adults and adolescents on their outpatient therapy journeys for many years. My focus on creating a safe and non-judgmental therapeutic environment allows my clients to engage in the therapy experience and make progress toward their goals. I enjoy being active, especially when I can do so outside. When I am not working, I am typically enjoying time with family.

Waitlist for new clients
I am excited to announce my practice is expanding. We now have three licensed therapists who are all fantastic caring people. It is important to accept a person exactly where they are, in a safe and non-judgmental space where we can explore their issues, find and nurture hope, and together work toward growth and equanimity. As a counselor, my job is to hear, accept and understand my client as a whole person and provide strategies to achieve their goals. Growth, healing and change can be challenging and may take hard work on the part of the client and the counselor. I am honored to be a part of that process with my clients.
