Have you experienced some form of trauma? Struggling with addiction? Or dealing with relationship challenges? You have come to the right place and have already taken the most important step in your journey toward peace of mind, connection, and confidence in your ability to achieve your goals. Often, the greatest challenge is overcoming the inertia of maintaining status quo and stepping out into the unknown where healing can begin.

Adult Individual & Counseling for Relationship Issues, Depression/Anxiety, Substance Abuse & Self Esteem Issues.
I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a member of the Mental Health Counselors Association. I've been providing counseling services to the community for over 20 years. My counseling practice is influenced by three years facilitating a court-ordered divorce course for the Naples Mental Health Association and completion of the Supreme Court Certified Family Mediation Training Program. In addition, I have 20 years of on-going study and experience with the psychoanalytic thought process that suggests our current issues and choices are often determined by emotional feelings and memories from the past.

I help individuals and couples cope and move forward though anxiety, depression, addictions, career changes, life stages, and relationship concerns. I offer support as you clarify what is really important to you and how you want to progress toward the life you want. My primary interventions for treatment come from Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), a cognitive behavioral method. Rather than trying to push away your troubling thoughts, an effort that does not usually work, I help you change your relationship with those thoughts, to lessen their power and control over your daily life.

Through this therapeutic relationship, we will create an environment where you will feel understood and motivated to heal.
I am passionate about helping children, teens, and young adults resolve anxious and depressive feelings that may keep them from living their best life. Even at a young age, we all experience situations that leave us wondering if we will ever be happy again. This can be devastating for the individual experiencing these symptoms and if not addressed early on, it can have long term effects into adult life. As a mental health counselor, I have had the pleasure of helping countless individuals overcome these feelings and get back to living a quality of life that was once unimaginable.

After many years of doing this work, I've realized there's nothing more valuable than the healing nature of the therapeutic relationship.
Gaining the skills and self-compassion to guide your way through challenging emotions and experiences can be life changing. I believe it is so important to speak our feelings honestly, especially the ones that hold shame for us, with those we feel safe to do so around. There's no greater antidote for shame than hearing someone else say, "me too" or "I see you." I will absolutely be that person for you. Our therapeutic relationship will create a nurturing pathway to access your vulnerability in a way that feels safe and healing. My approach is warm and skillful, utilizing humanistic, cognitive behavioral, and mindfulness techniques.

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
