I have enjoyed many years of getting to know and caring for teenagers and adults as both a Counselor and Marriage and Family Therapist. I began my career as a high school psychology teacher and discovered that I loved the students even more than teaching my subject! Since then, many unique challenges – relationship issues, life transitions, anxiety, depression, mood disorders and just plain life stress – have come through my office door. I have also studied with the FBI and Secret Service on prevention of domestic/school violence and stalking issues. This varied experience helps me work toward my client’s desired results.

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
