An individual once asked what I did for a living and what it taught me. After a moment, I offered spending time with people that life has stomped on and I learned how resilient people can be. Professional experience has focussed upon treatment and evaluation for those who have faced severe life trauma. This has included combat veterans, abuse victims, as well as medical and environmental catastrophe. A respect for families and children under stress prompted work with issues such as divorce, custody, parental rights and adoption. Experience with militay personel, and others who were resilient under extreme stress fostered work in assessing and develping leadership in roles such as corporate psychology and career development.

Are you tired, stressed out, and and in need of change in your life? Therapy can create such change- change in the way you think, react, and behave in difficult situations. The relationship between client and therapist can provide the basis for positive change. It is imperative that the client feels safe in an environment where empathy, freedom to explore, and mutual respect abound. My goal is to provide each individual/couple the opportunity to make those changes. Working together, we will confront the issues preventing you from experiencing a more joyful life.
