I have extensive experience working with individuals of all ages, including children, adolescents, adults, and seniors, who are dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, life transitions, ADHD, Autism, and caregiver stress.
Our daily lives are constantly filled with demands, expectations, and challenges. At times, we may lose sight of our true selves and what truly matters to us. Therapy provides a secure, inviting, and authentic space for individuals to reconnect with their inner selves, process their emotions, and gain valuable insights.

I have experience working with individuals of all ages, including young children.
You are the expert of your life and every individual client is different. Therapy is not one-size fits-all. I, as your therapist, want to form a partnership with you in which we collaborate and work together. My job is to develop an individualized treatment plan for you and your specific needs. The most important component of therapy is the client-therapist alliance and this is a top priority of mine. My goal is to provide you an environment in which you feel safe, understood, and accepted.

Many of my clients are wanting to explore and make changes with a goal of understanding themselves and others. Depression, anxiety, stress and anger are not uncommon. Often they are helped by expressing themselves in a nonjudgemental environment to openly discuss and consider their options. Identifying strengths is an important aspect.

I enjoy spending time with my wife, three children, and a great novel.
“Most people seek therapy because something isn’t working. Sometimes people do not feel equipped to handle life’s problems – work stress, family stress, health issues, etc. Many individuals feel stuck trying to solve problems the same way when those solutions are no longer helpful. This pain can leave someone suffering and feeling helpless.” I want to help you gain perspective and new knowledge and skills for change. Often this involves being more aware and present in the moment. Many people do not recognize the power they have to create positive change in their lives. I will help empower you to find your strengths and make change.
