My focus is working with patients that have chronic pain. I have seen too many times where pain starts to define the person and takes over their life. It does not have to be this way.

The symptoms of chronic pain can be thought of as stepping stones down a path. I offer a safe place to discuss your pain journey. I can help you to find a clear path to move forward and get your life back.

Every individual has their own story; being 'heard' is the start of healing. I will listen to you, I will work with you, and with hard work, I can help you navigate back to living your life.

Pain should not be the defining factor for who you are. We will work together to develop strategies and set goals to help you learn to manage chronic pain symptoms in a positive manner so that you can go on with living your life. Grief is another area of interest for me. I am interested in working with those that have lost a pet and would like help with learning to process their loss.

In the first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and decide on an appropriate therapy. Cognitive Behavior Therapy has good evidence to help manage chronic pain. During sessions, I'll help you learn how to reorient your thoughts of your pain so that you learn to manage pain symptoms in a positive manner. If you are seeing me for grief counseling, we will consider talk therapy.
