Relationships can be hard. You can love someone and still have destructive patterns of communication. I want to help each person learn new and better ways to communicate. Sometimes, we just need to be heard by someone. I want to hear from each client by listening deeply to what they are saying. I have worked with many couples and individuals over the years to build stronger relationships and happier lives.

Together, we can process how difficult life has been and we can begin to build hope and healing for your future.

I work well with people who are curious about their thoughts and feelings. I do not tell my patients what to do, and I don't pretend to know how they should live their lives. I explore possibilities with my patients, while sometimes offering my thoughts if they are welcome. I also enjoy helping men understand their emotions and relationships on a deeper level, especially since men have so few spaces in which they can talk about the deepest parts of themselves.

**offering tele therapy*** When a client comes to his/her first session, I often share that they have done the hardest part: to make that initial call and to show up. From there, I look at it as my responsibility to help one feel safe sharing feelings/experiences so that they improve how they currently feel and create the life they want to get excited about living in the future. My approach is direct, simple, empathetic and effective. I have more than 20 years of experience providing therapy to adults and adolescents who are facing significant challenges/crisis' as well as those who are seeking personal growth.

Everyone experiences life struggles. I believe clients come to therapy already equipped with the tools and skills to make change and therapy is a tool to help accomplish that goal. I specialize in helping individuals with trauma, depression, anxiety and relationship problems. I've worked with adults, children, adolescents and families for 20 years, and take great joy in seeing change happen in the lives of others. I believe in a client-centered approach, which means you are the expert of your own life, and I am a facilitator in helping you accomplish your own goals. I also have experience working with other healthcare professionals.

We all could use a little help sometimes with this business of being human. Anxiety, depression, and relationship conflicts can weigh us down and keep us from flourishing. I guide clients to develop healthier thinking patterns and coping strategies, increase mindful attention to your inner life, and develop the capacity to embrace the broad spectrum of human emotions to empower you to live the life you want.

I've had the opportunity to counsel individuals struggling with anxiety and depression as well as behavioral concerns. The goal of therapy is to provide my client with what they're needing most, a reduction in anxious symptoms for example while collaborating on how they might function in society without barriers. I also complete comprehensive psychological evaluations for concerns with anxiety, depression, ADHD, learning disabilities, intellectual disabilities, and Autism. Although each client is different and their needs unique, each assessment's goal is to help answer the presenting question.

My own life experience and six years of non-profit work helped me realize my passion for helping people thrive in life. Many of us deal with difficulties in life that seem unchangeable and heartbreaking. I provide an un-biased, caring environment for clients to grow and learn healthy ways to process these difficulties. Thriving can mean different things to different people. I view counseling as a gentle process that allows clients to learn what thriving means for them.
