I have a passion for helping others. I have been successfully treating Borderline Personality Disorder as well as most anxiety, depressive, and psychotic disorders. All of these disorders are treatable. Treating BPD is my specialty, having 17 years experience reducing symptoms and improving the quality of life for my clients in both individual and group settings. I have taught the group using the BPD workbook for all of those years and have seen people make tremendous growth in understanding and controlling their emotions. Many eventually graduate from the program and need no further treatment.
I have 34 total years of counseling at-risk teenagers, as well as adults, from many ethnicities and backgrounds. I offer non-judgmental empathy to all who seek help. I enjoy counseling all who need help despite their backgrounds or beliefs. I especially enjoy Christian Counseling for those who prefer it.
As a member of the Great Lakes Psychology Group network, I have a team standing by Monday-Friday between 8:00 am and 8:00 pm Eastern available to help schedule an appointment and answer billing and insurance questions.
