My therapy style is engaged and proactive. Clients repeatedly tell me they feel safe and accepted in therapy to explore their issues, whatever they happen to be. I ask questions and make frequent observations to help clients (1) increase self-awareness and become more comfortable with themselves and their feelings, (2) to make better choices, (3) toward greater satisfaction in their lives and relationships. My unique history helps me understand and relate to the many struggles clients face, without judgment. For more information about me and my style of therapy, please visit my website: www.jupitercenter.com.
I work with adults and adolescents, individuals, couples, and families, helping them overcome anxiety, depression, chemical dependency and other addictions, PTSD and trauma (physical and sexual abuse, rape and domestic violence), family and relationship issues, including adoption, divorce, infidelity, anger, parenting, and issues related to the legal system.
Personal choices based on honest self-reflection can overcome even the most difficult circumstances. I know this from my own experiences and use it to help my clients. I have had my own share of difficulties to overcome, which helps me understand my clients' challenges with patience and without judgment.

In my book, Firewalking on Jupiter, there's a chapter called, "Depression and anxiety, flip sides of the same coin." They often go together and involve circumstances or internal conflicts that seem overwhelming, sometimes including past trauma. We will identify and find ways to address and remove experiences and life circumstances that cause depression, anxiety and other unwanted obstacles.
