The fact that you’re looking through therapist profiles on Psychology Today suggests that you’re looking for some kind of change in your life. The status quo has you frustrated and dissatisfied. You’ve probably tried to change on your own, but the change hasn’t quite stuck. Each time you fall short of the change you hope for, you likely get more discouraged, lose momentum, feel bad about yourself, and return to old habits. It can feel like a hopeless downward spiral that can lead you to say, “Why bother?” But, here you are! You haven’t given up. This is good!

Although I treat a variety of psychological conditions, I have three main specialty areas. First, I specialize in treating children and adolescents with emotional and/or behavior problems such as ADHD, anxiety, depression, poor school performance, non compliant behavior, substance abuse, and emotional trauma from domestic violence or sexual abuse. I also specialize in working with children, families, and adults who are struggling with issues related to divorce and re-marriage. My third specialty area is treating relationship and marital problems.

Do you struggle with difficult or “toxic” relationships? Or are you finding recovery from your own addiction, depression, grief, or trauma nearly impossible?

As we encounter life's various problems, we occasionally find that professional help might be useful. I work with people who are looking for that additional professional assistance. Some of the most common reasons people come to work with me are depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem and anger management, among several others. I also work with couples. For the first 15 years of my career I also worked training doctoral students on how to be therapists while maintaining a private practice on the side. This has given me invaluable insight into the therapy work I do now in my full-time private practice.

Be curious. It takes courage to ask those difficult questions about yourself, the world, and your relationships. In navigating life’s challenges, we can work with a professional who is experienced to take that journey with you. I am willing to help you explore those questions to help you learn and to stay curious. Therapy doesn’t just occur in the office, it’s a shift in perspective that changes the way you see the world. I base my therapeutic approaches on rigorous trainings, certification courses, and academic research.

I believe that you are the expert in your life and that the answers you seek are inside of you. My role is to help you examine your thoughts, feelings, and your life experiences in order for you to heal and grow from the inside of who you truly are. You were likely molded to think and feel a certain way in childhood and through various life experiences, and these thoughts and feelings may no longer serve you. Research shows that you can change unhelpful thoughts, feelings and core beliefs through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and other innovative techniques. Lets see how we can work together.

Facing emotional challenges can make you feel alone and lost. When people can’t physically see the wounds you carry you can wonder if you’re the only one, that you’re “just this way” and there’s nothing to be done, you’re broken. You have every right to feel what you’re feeling, your emotions, actions, thoughts, all of it makes perfect sense given what you’ve gone through AND change can happen. I want you to feel accepted while we push for change together. I don’t believe anyone is broken even when we feel that way sometimes, I believe we face challenges and challenges can be overcome.

My aim is to provide a safe and welcoming environment where people can come and show up as they are. I meet my clients with acceptance and a non judgmental stance so that we can have an open and honest therapeutic relationship. I believe that it takes an enormous amount of courage to be vulnerable and share our stories, particularly the ones that elicit distress (i.e. shame, guilt, sadness, anxiety, rage). I am honored to come alongside others as they work towards being the best version of themselves. My approach is balanced with candidness, humor, compassion, and an easy manner.

Seeking professional counseling takes courage. The reality is that most people would benefit from counseling. Therapy can help you manage life's challenges and live a more fulfilled life. It can help you understand what you are feeling, why and how to cope. Relationship counseling is similar to hiring a professional marriage/relationship "coach". Education, training, experience and life lived all equip a counselor to be helpful. I began my career as a counselor and later as Director of Counseling at the Flying H Youth Ranch for troubled teen boys and their families 40+ years ago.

As free human beings we have the gift of making choices in our life. One big choice is taking the opportunity to reach out for support and guidance when we aren’t operating at our optimal level. We often minimize our mental health needs; however, it is of vital importance to our overall well-being. Whatever your mental health needs are, the key role of a therapist is establishing a good therapeutic relationship. They need to be willing to walk with you for a time on your own individual journey. I am honored to be a therapist and have that opportunity to work with you.
