Imagine a life where challenges are easily met without affecting your mood and health. Imagine being able to feel happy with the ability to experience less stress and feel less overwhelmed. Your ability to live well with emotional health and balance is achievable. Establishing positive and loving relationships is closer than you think! You have already taken the first step. I look forward to the opportunity to assist you in creating a new beginning. Covid-19 has affected us all in many ways. Let’s work together to control anxiety and mood while establishing a new normal. Telehealth is provided and covered by insurance companies.
Together we will discover and work to reach your goals. I have had the privilege of working with children, adults, and families throughout my 19 years in practice. I specialize in the treatment of Anxiety Disorders and Depression. My training in CBT allows for fast reduction in troublesome symptoms. Enjoying your life will occur faster than you might think
Over the years in practice, the most common feedback I've received is the appreciation of my use of support, humor and personality, which allows people to feel comfortable enough to form an open and trusting relationship with me. Let's work together to achieve the results you're looking for. I look forward to sharing in your journey.
