Our thoughts are powerful and can make the difference between feeling happy or feeling stuck and sad. Thoughts can be intrusive and overpower us causing intense feelings of anxiety, depression, and overall feeling trapped or stuck. Although it may not always feel like it, happiness is within your control. Whether it means overcoming a fear, understanding what is causing you to feel so sad, or just talking through life's daily stressors, I am here to listen to you and help you take control.

As a licensed and board certified clinician, I find that all aspects of experiences impact my clients as they do myself. My background in psychology and social work give me a unique perspective. I have worked as an educator in the public schools, provided services at a tier 3 hospital and continue to work in the non-profit sector. Each experience enhances my expertise in addressing serious issues that may be presented. Couples counseling, anger management, drug and substance abuse are some of the main areas that are addressed. We look for the underlying causes primarily Depression, Anxiety and mental health concerns.

Using the science-based technique (CBT) cognitive behavior therapy, I will help you explore thoughts about people, places, and things in your life. We can either learn to be happier in the lives we have, or gain the strength and motivation to change it into the life we want.
Therapy is best when it is a conversation between two genuine people. I like the analogy of the therapist as a seasoned woodsman, who meets you, lost in your personal forest. As you walk and talk, the woodsman subtly uses known cues about how to get out of the woods.
