With over 30 years of clinical practice, extensive continuing education, and an emphasis on what works rather than on what’s wrong, I tailor my approach to the specific needs of each individual, couple, family, and group for whom I provide service. Using proven methods, I am able to offer, among others, supportive, interactional, brief problem-solving, cognitive-behavioral, including trauma focused cognitive-behavioral, and relational psychotherapies. Common themes among my clients are concerns related to relationship difficulties, bereavement, mood disorders including depression, anxiety, childhood behavioral problems, eating disorders, compulsive and additive behaviors, and difficulties related to specific life circumstances.

Over my 30 years of experience, I have seen that when clients reach out for therapy, it is a sign of strength and a willingness to change. I view counseling as a partnership between the client and myself, and help each client learn a new skill set that enables them to grow through life's challenges. I provide a non-judgmental and calming environment, with a focus on mindfulness. A holistic approach is used, which recognizes the importance of addressing body, mind, emotions, and spirit in order to achieve and maintain health. I am a safe, neutral sounding board for clients, which allows them to learn, grow, and heal.

I am a National Certified Counselor with my masters degree in clinical Mental health counseling. I utilize an eclectic approach to therapy, as I believe therapy is not a one size fits all service; different people heal in different ways. My approaches include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person Centered Therapy, Strength Based Therapy, DBT techniques, and ABA techniques. I work with anxiety disorders, depression disorders, ADD/ADHD, childhood trauma, and Autism Spectrum Disorders.

Many people look for a counselor because something in life isn't working - a challenging relationship, inability to cope with life's stress in a healthy way, a lack of joy or peace, or some harmful behavior that is out of control. Trying to change on our own isn't working and we've hit a dead end. As a licensed counselor, it's my passion to help you discover a way to navigate these difficulties and move forward toward a life of purpose, fulfillment, and joy.

Over the years, it has been my privilege and honor to serve many different populations. Most recently, I have spent a lot of time working with marital and family issues as well as addictions of various kinds. I also enjoy assisting clients with stage of life challenges like remarriage, adjustments after the birth of your first child, teen years, empty nest, or dealing with chronic illness. Many of these issues are usually connected to stress and anxiety management; an area I have also worked with extensively. My experience and education are difficult to encapsulate into just a few areas.

Are you overwhelmed and need support with your child’s challenging behavior? Are you looking for coping skills to help your child with big emotions? As a parent, you want your child to thrive. I will work with you to meet your child’s needs every step of the way. I use play therapy to build upon a child’s natural language - play! Children often struggle to verbalize their concerns and struggles. Play can serve many purposes, including emotional expression, problem solving, confidence building, and behavioral change.

The willingness to engage in therapy is a great start. If that willingness can grow and you can apply the effort successful outcomes require, then you are likely closer to the life you want (and deserve) than it may seem to you right now. Yes, successful therapeutic outcomes will likely require you to experience uncomfortability. But the reward for learning to move through the discomfort is a life consistent with what you really want and who you really are. And you will not be on the journey alone, I will be there to support and guide you.
