"I have over 25 years providing counseling services to children, adolescents, adults, and families both as a school counselor and in community mental health. I use a variety of techniques and theories to help provide a personalized approach for each person. Some of these techniques/theories are play therapy, expressive arts, cognitive-behavioral, developmental, Gestalt, family systems, and solution-focused. I enjoy working with a range of concerns including anxiety, PTSD, trauma, abuse, grief, foster care/adoption, divorce, depression, ADHD, bipolar, and sexual orientation."

"My ideal client is a college student or adult who wants to address challenges related to AD/HD and co-related conditions through a coaching process. I coach clients in-person, by phone, or by Skype and use interactive tools (e.g., a shared calendar) to help clients manage their time, develop healthy habits and daily routines, and achieve their goals. My clients work toward a balanced life that includes healthy sleeping, eating, exercising, work, and study habits. I also help my clients incorporate mindfulness strategies and good social supports into their lives."

"Going to therapy can be scary, but it doesn’t have to be. The most important tool in therapy is the relationship between client and therapist. Building that relationship and a level of trust is the first thing we will do together. If you’ve gotten this far, you must be ready for change. Whether it’s unhappiness in a relationship, noticing a pattern or cycle you want to change, or feeling ready to become the best version of yourself. My job is to help support you through this process, and give you perspectives you may not have considered before. I help people connect with their true selves and work towards healing of past traumas."

"I believe there is an optimizing force in each of us that guides unfolding and that my role is to help you release blocks to this natural process. My work is grounded in inquiry and exploration. I will meet you where your questions, heart-longings, and pain reside. My extensive background in addictions, codependency and recovery and in co-occurring issues including depression, anxiety and trauma, has taught me about resiliency of the human spirit. I will help you access both inner and outer resources. Through the therapy process we will not only discover, but refine tools unique for you."

"As a music therapist, I address many goals typically addressed in traditional talk therapy, such as learning how to deal with difficult emotions, use new coping skills, and connect with others in order to live a healthier, more fulfilling life. Although talking is a big part of music therapy, music allows me to create an experience rather than a purely cognitive discussion. This can be a powerful path to healing. It doesn't matter if you have never played music before in your life. The music is my job -- your job is just to show up and be open to the experience."

"I invite you to forge new meaning, uncover personal mysteries, and cull the best from everyday life. Wherever you are in life, we'll work from your values toward the personal transformation that you are seeking. I enjoy working with adults of all ages."

"I always try to approach people with a deep appreciation for their complexity. Identified problems and symptoms are only part of the picture, and a more comprehensive view allows us to take full advantage of our strengths, as well as identify aspects of healthy living that are missing.

A strong therapeutic alliance can be an essential part of this effort."
