If you’re experiencing depression, anxiety, anger, grief or compulsive behaviors this is your mind and body’s way of letting you know something needs attention. No person is immune to the human experience. Navigating the challenges in life can be difficult. My office is a safe place to examine how your past might be affecting your present or your future. I will help you to identity behaviors or patterns that may be creating difficulties in your life and create the possibility for a different future. Available for in home visits. Currently not accepting new clients.

I appreciate that people come from a variety of backgrounds and, in consideration of this diversity, I give great respect to the uniqueness of each persons struggle and their hopes for the future. I have substantial experience helping adolescents and adults achieve mental wellness by overcoming behavioral issues, depression, social-emotional difficulties, anxiety, eating disorders, and addiction.

For therapy to be effective it is necessary to find a therapist that is a good fit. Someone with whom you can feel comfortable. Someone who takes your concerns seriously. My practice focuses on creating that kind of relationship; one that is built on empathy, trust and compassion. My approach to working with clients is strength based. Gaining insight by understanding patterns and behaviors in the present and the past is the first step towards change. Therapy gives you the courage to work towards the desired changes and the opportunity to take control of your life.

Therapy is an invaluable experience that can help you to solve problems, develop tools to improve communication skills, create and accomplish goals, or teach you new ways to be mindful of your emotions and better regulate stress. Whatever your needs may be, I am here to offer support. Whether you or your child are dealing with symptoms of anxiety, depression, life transitions, or overwhelmed by outside stressors - I have the tools and professional experience to help you move forward. I have previous work experience providing individual and group therapy in a hospital setting, disability agency, as well as a medical clinic.

I look forward to making this experience meaningful and to building a close and collaborative relationship with you. Therapy provides an opportunity to learn more about yourself and to learn how to continue moving forward with your life in a valued direction when you are feeling stuck. I believe in taking a compassionate and indvidualized approach to helping each person and their family find the support and learn the skills to continue moving their lives forward in an effective way.

Frustrated of being told to "relax", "calm down", "you are too sensitive", "grow up" & "get over it already, or "you worry to much"? People tell you this as if you do not want to relax, stop overthinking, overreact and worry! If you could, you would! Being told this from friends and loved ones does not help. In fact, it can cause you to feel much worse! You probably have tried to stop on your own, but your mind continues to fill up with thoughts that cause you to become stressed and you struggle to turn your brain off! You are not alone! I get it and can absolutely relate! This why I am so dedicated in helping people find relief!

In a healing environment I work to help create self growth and awareness to help the individual achieve the goals that are important to them. I am committed to providing the best treatment possible focusing on solutions to help achieve self- fulfillment. My goal is to provide a safe space where, together, we can raise awareness of thoughts, feelings, experiences, behaviors, and/or relationships. I offer day and evening appointments. I have experience working with adolescents, adults, and families in different settings, including residential treatment, hospitals, and schools.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Certified Addictions Professional, Sex Therapist, and Certified EMDR therapist. I have extensive experience working with dual diagnosis, trauma, sexual concerns, and various other issues.

I believe that personal growth is an innate human quality that motivates each of us to pursue new goals, strive for clarity and find the loving connections that sustain us through good and trying times. Unfortunately we often get in our own way without knowing the causes, frustrating our efforts to achieve these ends. Commitment and dedication to self-discovery is the first step toward achieving greater emotional freedom. While this can be a challenging journey, the rewards are priceless. I believe that most clients will achieve significant relief through our collaborative work together. Take that first step and let's begin today!

What happens if you have been avoiding dealing with personal issues and you are finally at a point where you want support to heal, grow and thrive? Coming for counseling is an opportunity to gain knowledge about yourself in a safe and non-judgmental relationship. I spend time getting to know your story and together build a way to address injuries, pain, shame, sadness, stress and hope.

Is your relationship in trouble? Is there too much fighting? Too much distance? We can help you to build a happy and loving relationship that works for both of you. We also specialize in helping men who sabotage relationships and careers. We teach men how to make their relationships work better, and how to be more successful and happy at work, at home, and in life. Other therapists in my practice specialize in women's issues,trauma recovery, family therapy, eating disorders, and addictions.

I have been in private practice for the past forty years working with individuals, couples and groups. Presently I am a relationship specialist for both couples and singles, specializing in infidelity and communication issues. I teach skill-based love because without good communication and conflict resolution skills, people act out with affairs rather than acting in and talking. I love working with couples " on the brink" no matter how hopeless a situation may feel. After an affair, a couple can create a better relationship than they had before. Healing and growth are possible. I want to help to make your relationships better.

I have a tender heart toward hurting and conflicted men who feel abandoned, lost, and alone. I specialize in helping men heal from sexual abuse. At times, this journey requires walking through the low road of dealing with painful memories from the past. Wounds can go deep. Learning to articulate dreams and grieve in healthy ways can be important steps along the way to healing. This requires a safe place with a safe person who is willing to listen. God has given me that kind of heart.

Are you facing heartbreak from betrayal trauma or loss? Do you have a challenging or toxic relationship with someone, yourself, sex, the internet, money or food that you are unable to stop despite harmful consequences? Have you or your partner turned away from each other and perhaps turned toward someone or something else for connection? The aftermath of loss is painful and confusing and leaves us with intense sadness. Attachment wounds from our childhood often become reactivated and make their way into our present connections. Healing from these injuries-old and new-can help us move forward.

We treat traumatic stress related conditions and issues related to developmental trauma & attachment injury. These include dissociative disorders (including DID), depression, anxiety, unexplained chronic pain, chronic suicidality, self harm, borderline personality disorder, PTSD, CPTSD, trauma related psychosis, relationship problems, social anxiety and more. We are commited to meeting our clients where they are in the process so they can continue moving toward recovery and wellbeing.

It may feel that you are far from your ideal self and that your hopes and dreams have become elusive. You may feel stuck as you found yourself engulfed in personal and relational cycles that do not serve you or someone you love anymore. Whether you are seeking individual therapy, couples therapy, family therapy or are a guardian trying to help your child/adolescent, we will work together to construct goals in positive terms and create positive shifts in the way you connect with your experiences.

Do you want a more fulfilling sex life or better sexual communication with your partner? What about concerns with sexual pain or dysfunction? Would you like to speak candidly about your sexual orientation or gender identity in a safe and confidential environment? As a clinical sexologist and certified sex coach, I have the training and resources to support and help you. I work with people in all aspects of sexuality. Whether individually or as part of a couple, I will coach and guide you to help reach your desired goals. Where do you see yourself tomorrow, if you don't reach out today?
