I also work with children, adolescents, college students and adults managing to balance work and family commitments.
Are you looking for more fulfilling relationships in your life? Do you want to regain balance and have less anxiety? Are you worried about your child and want them to have more confidence, perform better in school and be more prepared for the world around them? I help you feel more fulfilled in your job, family life and relationships. I help you sort through your feelings and find the barriers in your life holding you back. Identifing the patterns from your childhood that creep into your everyday interactions are a focus so they aren't a driving force anymore and you are more self aware.

In that time, I've become very familiar with children who have school-related problems, as well as psychological testing and special education laws.
Let's face it, it's not easy coming to the decision to seek out counseling, let alone calling a complete stranger to do so. My hope is that, if you decide to take this step to contact me, we will not be strangers for long. I have been a clinician in various capacities for over 15 years and have always worked very hard to make people feel comfortable talking to me. During those years I have developed a general practice where I have seen people for anxiety, depression, parenting, marriage and sexuality.
