I work with a variety of adult clients. Most people who consult me are confronting anxiety,depression, substance abuse, stress related disorders, and marital problems. In assessing the type of problems, people present, I look at lifestyle, current coping mechanisms, how we think and perceive our problem, our personal histories and what strategies specifically people have used to address their concerns. The use of mindfulness, learning to be more present in the moment allows for reduced reactivity, new ways of coping, problem solving, and relating to others in ones environment. It can lead to healing and transformation.

I see clients via Telehealth Only. I’ve enjoyed several careers which helps me to relate to a wide variety of clients.

I have an ability to build trust and rapport very quickly by my non-judgmental style and full acceptance of my clients. I can be direct and gentle at the same time, building self-worth along the way. I believe in empowering clients to be their best self so they can rise to accomplish their hopes and dreams.

When pain lingers long enough or becomes greater than our ability to keep pushing forward, we finally become willing to do whatever it takes to get relief. Psychological and emotional distress affects our sleep, our eating behaviors, use of alcohol and other drugs, our well-being, and our ability to function at home, work, and in our relationships. We're often plagued by fear, anxiety, anger, frustration, confusion, depression, self-doubt, failure, hopelessness, and even total despair.

If you are looking for a therapist, it is likely you are ready to experience some change in your life. I provide trauma-focused psychotherapy which can guide you into both transformation and healing. You may be suffering with symptoms of depression, trauma, chronic pain, and anxieties. When you reach out for help, feeling better is an inevitable outcome. Often, when you begin to more mindfully experience your inner world, you may feel more emotional intensity before you feel better. My therapy approach is holistic in the sense that I acknowledge and work with the body, mind, emotions and spirit.

My approach utilizes integrative psychotherapy, coming from the perspective of addressing the “whole person”. Considering thoughts, feelings, behavior, and the way our life experiences have shaped the way we see and function in the world.
