I resonate with the Christian community and, in addition, folk that may have their own religion and have a totally different worldview- which is, perfectly OK. I find that all still yearn for belonging, acceptance, and a strong desire to be seen as special by themselves and others. Unfortunately, life and important others in your world, as a child or later, did not cooperate. Instead, they treated you with shame, verbal abuse, rejection, and you were led to believe that you were marred or flawed in some way, resulting in a sense of worthlessness. And through learned coping strategies we sort of half way existed. Familiar?

I would describe my approach to therapy as mindfulness/self-compassion-based. I treat a wide range of issues, including depression, anxiety, addictions, interpersonal issues (i.e. couples counseling), psycho-spiritual/religious conflicts and abuse, sexuality, and pragmatic life-coaching, to name a few. I have extensive experience working with the LGBTQ community, some "out," others not; some religious, others not. I use elements of CBT, ACT, DBT and other models.

I work with a wide array of clients experiencing challenges in their lives ranging from eating disorders to substance abuse to serious trauma. In my years of work specializing in children and parents contending with anger, anxiety, depression, foster-care, parenting struggles and divorce issues I have helped families find healing and recover fun in their relationships.
