These last few years have presented many challenges for everyone. Depression, anxiety, addiction, grief and other issues are on a rise. It is not always easy to make the decision to reach out for therapy. However, therapy can help and support a person through what they are experiencing. Change is not easy; it takes courage to change and you do not have to face it alone. I have worked in acute care for many years with adults, elderly, children and adolescents. I feel confident to work with many mental health issues.

Since 2009, I have worked with college age and older adults to confront and manage struggles surrounding depression, anxiety, identity confusion, and trauma. We work collaboratively often using dreams and creative projects to gain deeper understanding of the unconscious. All of our work is approached with the presumption that there is an intelligence within that ultimately knows what is best for you, but this wisdom is often concealed by overwhelming emotions, grief, toxic relationships, self-defeating behaviors and thought patterns.

My approach to therapy is based on the conviction that our current behaviors are a function of our system and relationships with others. I try to learn from my client's experiences to develop a better understanding of who they are, how they developed their sense of self, their worldview, and behavior.

Thank you for consider seeing me for counseling. I see counseling as a process of collaboration between you, the client, and I, the counselor, in obtaining your goals.
