I enjoy working with couples and families. I have been very successful in using a communication approach when working with couples. I have worked with attachment issues since I started counseling in 2000. I am especially excited about working with families in a group setting in order to deal with major issues that are occurring. I am experienced in systemic counseling and group work of all kinds.

*Taking new clients*Offering Telehealth. I have 30 years of experience in the field of counseling. I enjoy working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families who are seeking compassionate support with anxiety, depression or a challenging transition or experience. I create a space to foster positive growth and strengthen overall quality of life through personal awareness. I believe that each individual has unique gifts and strengths within them, and when given the support and guidance through the counseling process, great progress can be made. My approach is Eclectic in nature, as I use techniques from all schools of therapy.

My ideal client is someone who wants to work on their issues. It’s not necessarily with someone who is without concerns about counseling, but someone who feels stuck. It may even be someone who has a sense about how to move forward, but wants some companionship on the road of change. I successfully deal with a physical disability so I often work with people who feel they can’t find a way to overcome their challenges whether it is mental illness, problems coping, physical disability or chronic illness. Generally I help people succeed in getting their lives back or who simply need some help moving forward.

I offer telemental health sessions via computer, iPad type devices, smart phone, and telephone. Change is possible in a positive therapeutic relationship where feelings, thoughts, and behaviors can be examined, understood and challenged in a safe and respectful way. As a psychotherapist it is my role to assist with this process of exploration and vulnerability. It is a privilege to be trusted with people's hopes and dreams for a more satisfying, balanced life.

I am a EMDR and brainspotting practitioner and I am also a certified clinical hypnotherapist. I have studied energy work such as reiki. Much of my work experience has been working with individuals, adolescents, and those in crisis. I work often with depression and anxiety.
