You have not felt like yourself for a while. You feel trapped in a cycle of anxiety, frustration, confusion, exhaustion, and maybe even feel stuck. You may not know when it all started, but you know that you are now ready to initiate lasting change in a meaningful way. As well as learn and develop skills that initiate change in a positive direction.

Therapy can be a transformative experience. I am glad you are here! My goal for therapy is to provide an environment where you can feel safe and work towards being your authentic self. This judgment-free zone will be filled with warmth, understanding and genuine curiosity as we move through the therapy process. You can count on me to ask the hard questions, challenge unhelpful thoughts and educate my clients. I will also listen, laugh, respect and meet my clients where they are in their therapy journey.

The majority of my clients come to me with symptoms that respond well to LENS Neurofeedback therapy. LENS has been extremely effective for treating Anxiety, ADD/ADHD, Depression and symptoms of Concussion such as feelings of Overwhelm, Brain Fog, Explosiveness. Substance abuse treatment is the second most common reason clients come to me. I offer support and direction for my client's transition to a clean and sober life from the prospective of someone who has been successful in his own recovery for over 20 years. LENS Neurofeedback is also increasingly being used in addictions treatment as it improves motivation and self-esteem.

Client's who work best with me are often not the clients who know exactly what they want or need in therapy, though that can be very helpful. Often they are simply people who recognise a need for help and are willing to engage in the process. You can go to any competent clinician and they should be able to support you with basic skills. What I draw out of people is not only what they want and need, but their strengths and special aspects that make them who they are in order to work through to a point where they can make healthy choice and live their "best life."

I believe life needs to be fully experienced and enjoyed! Too often, the stresses and traumas of life prevent us from stepping into a full life. My goal is to create a welcoming environment where you can feel safe enough to start working on creating the life you dreamed of having and to develop the skills necessary for personal growth. Prior to becoming a counselor, I worked as as a Qualified Professional with individuals with developmental delays over a decade. I enjoyed assisting individuals with specific behavioral and life skill needs. I enjoy spending time with my son, riding horses and gardening.

Life can be unpredictable with unbelievable challenges. As we experience these "life moments," it is challenging to seek help or know where to go. I offer an "eclectic" approach to treating clients through my training in Cognitive Behavior Therapy and Dialectic Behavior Therapy. My number one priority is building a supportive therapeutic connection with my clients to help them feel comfortable as they work through difficult turning points in their lives.

I consider it my personal mission to reduce the divorce rate in the United States, 1 couple at a time. But preventing divorce will only be succesful if, in place of unfulfilling or chronically dysfunctional marriages, couples develop truly thriving marriages & deeply fulfilling relationships. Even in the most hopeless-seeming cases, couples can heal the damage from the past and move forward in a healthier way. Not all marriages can be saved, but when couples do the work to heal the past, their future can be happier, no matter what the outcome for the relationship.
