You seem to have it all together on the outside. You live by the golden rule, working hard, extending compassion while taking care of everyone but yourself. You say, “I am fine,” when you know you are not. The fear of judgment or something terrible happening weighs heavily on your mind. High standards, whether self-imposed or external, feel impossible to meet, leaving you hindered and overwhelmed. You feel stuck in negative cycles, distracting yourself from uncomfortable feelings through overworking, shopping, or drinking too much. Constantly in survival mode, you experience stress, anxiety, fatigue, confusion, and overwhelm.

All therapy stems from the building of a relationship -- a partnership -- between the therapist and the client. There can be no progress or client satisfaction without trust and that trust can be life changing and last long after the therapy has concluded. I have worked with countless numbers of children, adolescents and adults who began treatment filled with guilt, worry and stress. Nothing gives me more satisfaction than to see them over time shed those negative emotions and step back into life with the tools necessary to become successful and empathetic individuals.

People usually come to me wanting and needing change relatively quickly for their issues related to drugs and alcohol, eating, or as concerned family members. People often feel some shame, or a lot of it, around their problems. I have had success in orienting people to these problems and motivating them to find their way to hope, happiness, and a "recovered" life. Raising a person's true self-confidence is usually a part of the treatment. No two people are exactly alike so I adapt to the counseling needs of my clients. These are treatable issues, so seek help! See below on my cost-effective group on food and body image issues.

Taking the first step to reach out for help is an act of strength and courage, and I am grateful for the opportunity to share my approach to therapy with you. Mental health issues are both common and complicated. They result from a combination of biological, psychological, social, and societal factors. We may not be able to see it readily, but many of us are struggling. We may be dealing with mental illness or simply feeling pain from difficult life situations. This is a challenging time for our nation and the world, and we are experiencing a common sense of anxiety, sadness, grief, and loss that can test our ability to cope.
