We all experience challenges and opportunities to grow and emerge stronger. I believe most humans instinctively move toward higher ground. Sometimes we need someone to walk alongside us who can help keep hope kindled and discover new, less painful, costly routes on the climb. I've had the privilege to journey with clients for over 25 years. My passion is working with those who've been marginalized or who experience themselves on the edges of community. I love witnessing clients do hard things, sit in difficult places, and face what scares them most.

You want to live in the present, yet you feel trapped in the past. Despite having aspirations, the grip of depression & anxiety have left you feeling stuck in a never-ending loop. You feel like you are just going through the motions of life, without any real purpose or joy. Depression drains your energy & motivation level. Anxiety gets you spiraling down a rabbit hole of negative thoughts, “if onlys,” & “what ifs,” leading to an endless stream of self-doubt & self-criticism. The possibility of negative outcomes & painful memories lead to a constant state of unease, making it difficult to appreciate the positive aspects of life.

Welcome. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor (LADC). I have been working as a therapist since 2007. Currently, I am the co-owner of Collaborative Counseling and Training where we believe in utilizing evidence based, effective strategies, in a private, professional setting to assist you in addressing problems and goals including stress, anxiety, depression, substance related and behavioral problems, relationship issues and other concerns.

I treat individuals in order to treat families with the understanding that the whole of the family system is greater than the sum of its' parts. Thirty five years in the business has taught me that anything and everything that affects an individual also affects the family system as a whole and vice versa.

I've been helping people with therapy for more than 15 years as both a mental health and substance abuse counselor. Therapy can enable you to identify existing problems, create a plan for change, and work toward making those desired changes. The therapeutic process can aid in working through past and present problems that may be holding you back in relationships or other important life situations. Removing obstacles in your life can help you be the best version of yourself. Talking through life changes in a non-judgmental environment often helps to create an environment of positive change.

We all suffer, there is nothing wrong with you. Counseling is a collaborative process that we, you and I, use to actively construct a way of living. Sometimes our conversations will reveal previously unseen solutions. Anything that I propose is yours to question, modify, elaborate, or reject. You are a unique person who knows what has worked and what has not worked in the past. Life is an ongoing practice, made more meaningful and less confusing when engaged in authentic dialogue with others. Maybe, through shared inquiry, we can discover new possibilities. I would be honored to visit with you and find our way together.

We all go through times of struggle and pain. These times can cause us to feel lost, alone, scared, or just completely exhausted. One way to work through our struggles is to talk with someone we can confide in, who we know will not judge or looked down on us for what we have been through. Experiences as children can have lasting effects on us mentally & physically just as much as the things we have experienced as adults. Working through our feelings of past and present situations we have been through can be very beneficial to our mental health.
