I focus on the communication within relationships with emphasis on one's feelings, thoughts and behaviors.

Parenting is one of the most rewarding yet challenging jobs that exists. I specialize in helping families thrive. I understand that this happens when parents and children enjoy strong, supportive and nurturing relationships.

In over 30 years of practice, I have discovered that my clients want more than relief from their symptoms. They want to better understand themselves and their struggles, they want practical tools to help them change, and they want more out of the relationships and their lives. Through my practice, continued training and education, and my own personal growth I am committed to offering my clients a wide range of meaningful and effective therapeutic experiences that address each of these desires and more. In addition to traditional psychotherapy, I offer hypnotherapy and equine assisted psychotherapy (an innovative experiential therapy).

I have been helping individuals find purpose and direction and overcome grief, anxiety and depression; couples prepare for marriage and couples grow from unhappiness to renewed marital satisfaction; and children face the challenges of too much stress as well as teenagers and young adults learn to cope and manage the challenges of adolescence and young adulthood for over 30 years. People often choose me because I am committed to Christian values: every person is important; marriage is worth hard work; and children deserve to be well loved and respected.

Thank you for reaching out! I am happy that you are here. The question I would like to ask you is: why are you here? Are you suffering from anxiety or depression?

We are all dealing with life- whether it be daily struggles that may feel insurmountable or a life-changing event- but therapy can be a tool to help you transition through these hardships with the support you need. Through cognitive behavioral therapy, I would love to show you how resilient you truly are. We are all yearning to be heard, to connect, and to heal.

It's disturbing when you feel yourself repeating the same patterns over and over. You're smart and otherwise doing well in most other areas of your life, but you just can't seem to figure it out. It shows up in funny ways: You can't quite communicate, you're unable to fully commit and be vulnerable, or feel like your true self. You can’t relax or sleep well with so much anxiety and doubt. When you don't feel right your body can't relax. Others believe the mask you wear and don't know you're not as put together as you present yourself to be. You've tried to figure it out yourself but you know that at this point you need some help.

I work with adolescents and adults with concerns such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem, social anxiety, stress, as well as adolescent and young adult concerns including bullying, peer conflict, academic and athletic pressures.
