I enjoy working with clients to help them address and successfully overcome personal life problems and other personal issues. I am experienced in working with individuals and couples who may have marital or relational difficulties, parenting, and other family problems in adulthood, including the care of elderly relatives. In my work with couples and families I generally explore familial patterns and include methods from psychodynamic psychotherapy, family systems, and contextual family therapies. The overall objective for therapy is always the successful resolution of the problems through a collaborative and therapeutic process which results in individual and collective growth.

My ideal client would be someone ready to dig their heals in and begin to sort through all the layers of life that have accumulated. Soul level work can be beautifully life changing but deep and painful at times. I consider our work together as a commitment to you and the next layer of your life journey. It is precious and sacred. Therapy is a safe place where we peel back the layers of masks we wear every day and just "get real" about ourselves and where we want our lives to lead. Hopefully, our collaboration will encourage you live the life for which you were created.

we all could benefit from a better understanding of ourselves and others. Unfortunately some times we could use a guide on this journey of discovery. By understanding our past and our present we can work toward a healthier and happier future. People are not things that can be broken or fixed. We are all unique and dynamic individuals who sometimes could use a helping hand.

Transition is a natural part of life whether a transition from high school to college, getting married or divorced, or changing careers. Both positive and negative transition can bring stress into the family. I work with Adults & Children 7 years and above. As a military combat veteran, I have interacted with cultures around the globe. Assisting active military, veterans, and their families is a passion of mine. Conversely, I have great experience in settings where the average client has not had military experience. I take a direct approach when working with people where you meeting your goals is the focus for the sessions.

Family Systems Therapists
Family Systems therapists view problems within the family as the result not of particular members' behaviors, but of the family's group dynamic. The family is seen as a complex system having its own language, roles, rules, beliefs, needs and patterns. The therapist helps each individual member understand how their childhood family operated, their role in that system, and how that experience has shaped their role in the current family.
