"To assist those who are struggling with urgent issues I make every effort to afford new clients an intake assessment within 24-48 hours of registration. I provide supportive counseling that helps my clients explore and resolve the personal issues that have proven to be too difficult for them to manage alone. I work with adults, teens, adolescents and children struggling with depression, anxiety, sleep disturbance, PTSD, panic attacks, and stress related physical problems. I offer client's an opportunity to speak and be heard on the issues that are impacting on their life in negative and emotionally painful ways. As we dialogue new understandings emerge that stretch and expand client’s thinking about themselves, others, and their world allowing meaningful change to occur."

"I believe that there is something positive to find in all situations. Therapy should be a positive step to change in life and I believe all clients have the power of change within them. I will help you or your loved one to find that power within and make positive changes in your life. I am a Substance Abuse Professional and I am certified to perform DOT assessments for positive alcohol and drug tests. I provide counseling for any type of addiction (heroin, alcohol, sex, Internet) in a non-judgmental manner."

"I work with individuals, couples, families, and children addressing everything from everyday stress to chronic anxiety & depression. Many clients simply want an objective and trusted listener. I offer a comfortable and private setting for you to settle in and talk about your concerns. Maybe you're contemplating a change and not sure about your path; a new job, starting, ending, or recharging a relationship, confronting someone or resolving old hurts. The thought of change is usually more overwhelming than the actual act of change; anticipation often far worse than participation."

My areas of interest and experience include depression, suicide prevention, grief and loss, anxiety disorders, self-esteem, marriage and family therapy, life changes, domestic violence, trauma, and severe and persistent mental illness.
