Welcome, I am a licensed professional counselor offering a confidential atmosphere of respect and compassion where you can express your concerns and feelings through supportive listening and expert guidance. I work with you to strengthen your self-awareness and personal empowerment helping to improve your tools to make conscious, positive changes which can improve your life experiences. I work with individuals and families experiencing the range of issues that bring people into therapy: depression, divorce, substance abuse, child behavior problems, relationship issues, adolescent issues, etc.

Are you stressed, overwhelmed, tired, and ready to give up? Does it seem like your relationships are struggling or falling apart? Are you emotionally drained, ready for a change, and desire a better life? Those are all thoughts and emotions felt by many people at different times in their life. By developing a therapeutic relationship characterized by consistency and effort and helping you to develop a plan and vision for your life, I will help you get from where you are to where you want to be so you can begin living your best life.

Are you seeking a profound shift in your life? Are you ready to delve into your inner world and discover lasting healing and transformation? I welcome you to a safe space where you can embark on a journey of self-discovery and inner harmony with Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy. My role as a therapist using this model is to guide clients in building a dynamic and compassionate relationship to their internal worlds and with the world around them. When we learn to appreciate how we have adapted to our wounds, we can change our patterns of behavior, as well as, love ourselves and others more actively and fully.

I believe therapy is a sign of awareness not weakness and if you are looking for therapy for you then you are making a huge step for your personal well being! I have worked with a broad range of clientele for over 20 years now ranging from 5yrs to 70yrs. My specialization is in adolescents, adults, couples, family counseling and addict family systems. I work from a CBT approach and always keep the clients best interest at mind. I put a strong emphasis on client's privacy/ confidentiality. I work with clients as a nonjudgmental friend, teacher and coach

“People only seriously consider change when they feel accepted for exactly who they are.” -Carl Rogers. Of the concerns that bring folks to therapy, the ability to find someone understanding is most important. I utilize a Person in Environment (PIE) and strengths-based framework. This means understanding and appreciating how one’s environment impacts their life as well as the individual qualities one possesses to create change. My theoretical orientation includes Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and feminist theory. My values include compassion, persistence, and authenticity.
