As a therapist with over 25 years of experience, I have been privileged to be part of positive change for individuals, families, and couples with a wide range of issues.I strive to form a collaborative, supportive, and professional relationship with clients. I prefer a "down to earth" approach where clients feel comfortable to speak freely without judgement. I understand how difficult it is to discuss issues related to anxiety, OCD, panic attacks, depression, self esteem, trauma, relationship issues, and situational stress. I appreciate the strength that is needed to talk about these issues and have great respect for all clients.

I believe that what drives people to seek therapy is pain--but pain can take many forms: anxiety, fear, anger, depression. Our work together is to be curious in a way that feels safe and then to develop coping skills in order to enhance functioning and move forward.

Starting therapy can be scary! It takes a lot of courage to face the unknown and walk into a situation with the purpose of creating change. Offering a safe environment for you to tell your stories and feel your feelings is, for me, the most important aspect of the therapeutic relationship. As a therapist, you will find me to be warm, caring, and nonjudgmental. I will share with you my observations, help you gain insight into your problems, and give you new tools to cope. Sometimes, we'll laugh -- a sense of humor is very important in the healing process!

I believe therapeutic change and progress evolve through the combination of a non-judgmental, insight oriented approach and the development of a therapeutic relationship. With self understanding we gain insight into repetitive cycles that often contribute to sadness, anxiety, and relationship conflicts. In my work with clients I place emphasis on the strength of the intuitive, centered self. Throughout my training and postdoctoral work, I have had the privilege to gain experience in a variety of settings ranging from private practice, inpatient psychiatric hospitals, a residential treatment center, and outpatient clinics.

Life can be filled with challenging moments, situations and relationships. Such encounters can cause depression, anxiety and isolation. Life events may lead to unhealthy coping mechanisms that can evolve into self-destructive behaviors or relationships. I believe that healing and insight are stimulated by an interpersonal connection provided through a therapeutic alliance between the client and the therapist. I am trained in psychoanalytic psychotherapy, motivational interviewing, and multiple behavioral therapies. I have years of experience as a therapist working in a renowned outpatient substance abuse and mental health facility.

Deciding on counseling for your relationship takes courage. Yet, living in conflict and pain only causes more pain and anguish and confusion as to what to do. In my session I provide an emotionally safe space, to share and explore the dynamic, the wants, needs and all the variables that both of you need to communicate. I'm very neutral and non-bias, I commit myself to supporting you both. As a mediator in addition to my counseling, it is my skill to remain fair and impartial. Let's see how I can help you get the clarity and fulfillment in your relationship. In my own experience, when relationships are not working, nothing else is.

Therapy is a gift you give yourself. A time and place to explore the things causing you strain or stress, things you may not be happy with in your life, or relationships causing you conflict. All of these can lead to depression and anxiety. Starting therapy can be the first step toward healthier coping and a happier more fulfilling life. Why not give yourself that gift?

I have God, so why do I feel this way?? Just because you have your faith does not make you immune to life’s ups and downs. Anxiety and Depression are very real. It is not something you can just white-knuckle your way through. And no one expects you to. Maybe the issue is further complicated because you are struggling with an eating disorder or have a family history of depression. Whether these feelings are due to circumstances that are out of your hands or something biochemical is happening, you don’t have to figure it out alone. We are a Christian counseling practice that seeks to come along side you on this journey.
