" Hello and welcome. I am so elated to have the opportunity to speak with you. You may be feeling on the fence as to whether or not therapy is the right choice for you. You may be thinking "Does this really work?", "Will this help?" or "Will you even understand me?" The answer is YES. I believe asking for help is a courageous act and through my years of experience I have been able to recognize the differences in everyone's end goal. I will walk beside you throughout your process of wellness and healing. You will leave each session feeling better than you were feeling when you entered."

"I have dedicated my life to helping people. You may be feeling a little skeptical as to whether therapy will work or be right for your situation. Through my own life experiences and the education I have, I can assure you that therapy does work. Together we will work to understand exactly where you are, how you got there, and where you want to be moving forward. Getting “better” looks different for every situation, which is why my approach to counseling is one that is not rigid, but more flexible to meet you right where you’re at. "

"Whether you are in a marriage that is struggling, having a problem personally with substances, or just need some help clearing out the clutter in your life, my approach to counseling comes from many different counseling theories. I believe that it is important to focus on the here and now, emphasizing future actions, behaviors, and thoughts, rather than deeply exploring the past. While the past has brought us where we are today, how you believe today and how you act today is of more importance. I believe in being directive and intentional in all aspects of therapy."

"The ideal client who desire to be equipped and enabled to handle their issues independently. The client has the ability to solve their life's puzzle. My role is to assist the client to anchor the KEY piece(s) and help to develop their own coping skills . I have been helping people all of my life as a teacher, school counselor, and licensed professional counselor and hypnotherapist . Working with individuals, couples and families are areas in which I excel. Many practicing counselors do not blend traditional counseling practices with hypnotherapy. Using both approaches allows the client's mind to be "totally engaged.""

"You look around and you wonder "whose life is this"? How could it be yours?! You feel like a hamster running its repetitive wheel. You are tired. Anxious. Depressed. And forget about tending to a relationship or your own needs. You've lost sight of who you are. You get through the day, sure. You pretend that everything is perfect and you keep trudging along. But deep inside you are not where you want to be or who you want to be. You want to go back to being the happy, fun and driven person you used to be. You want to feel like you again. Now is the time to take back control and take care of you again. "

There are times when you might feel like you're losing your mind trying to get them to cooperate. Is it any wonder some moms have moments when they regret ever having had kids in the first place? The last thing you need is someone blaming you for your child's troubling behavior. I know what it's like to raise a hard to parent child. I got the looks, the unkind remarks. Despite the challenges, my son's grown up to be a man I'm proud to claim as mine. Yours can too. There's still hope for you."
