You can generally count on leaving your first session confident that I understand the problems you have presented and have clear formulations and concrete solutions to offer. Half of my cases are closed in under six sessions, most with good and lasting results.

As a therapist, I have a passion in helping people who are struggling with life’s challenges.

I offer brief and long term individual, couple, and family counseling from a psychodynamic perspective. My goal is to provide a "safe space" where people can talk about the many complicated facets of their lives. This process leads to greater awareness, new insights, and new behavior - all of which lead to a more satisfying and fulfilling life.

I view counseling as a partnership between myself, the client, and their family/support system. I have experience working with individuals, groups, and family/marital therapy. In addition to working with depression, anxiety, stress management, and relationship skills, I have experience with personality disorders, and trauma healing; particularly women who have abuse in their history and are currently experiencing distress in relationships, re-victimization, and/or substance use. I believe in meeting the client where they are at and moving forward in their time and stage of change.

I love my job because it's not about me. It's about coming alongside you on your journey in life. It's about getting the right counseling fit for you, even if that means its not me. It means helping you sort through what's happening in your life. I work with individuals, couples, families, and teens who are experiencing life challenges of all kinds. Two areas of importance to me are couples in relationship distress and families who have a family member or child with a developmental disability. I have a child with Down Syndrome and a deep understanding of how disability can impact individuals and families.

My study of psychotherapy and work in mental health spans over 3 decades. I graduate in Psychology, and hold a license in Marriage and Family Therapy in the State of Indiana.

The use of technology offers an accessible and flexible way to receive the support you need.

You want something to change, but don't know where to start. Maybe it's how you feel: Sometimes your thoughts, feelings, emotions, stories, and sensations try to get in the way of moving toward what's meaningful to you. Maybe it's how your relationship feels: Sometimes the communication patterns between the two of you can erode trust and commitment, leaving your relationship bond damaged or broken. Maybe you're haunted by your past: Like broken glass, many traumatic memories can be fragmented and jagged, stored in your mind and body, emotionally wounding you over and over again, until you're left dejected and exhausted.
