I enjoy working with adolescents, young adults, adults, couples, and families to address the problems they see as holding them from achieving what they want in life. Solution-driven, I specialize in the treatment of mood and anxiety disorders that stem from phase of life transitions, relationship issues, past traumas, substance abuse, grief/loss, parenting, and the need for social skill improvement. I have worked with clients on various issues, including minor alcohol-related disturbances, anxiety and depression, ADHD, anger, behavioral issues, bipolar disorder, career counseling, divorce, trauma and PTSD, and more.

Through my experience as a therapist in the mental health and substance abuse field, I have come to believe that change occurs through gaining insight into our own thinking processes. When we begin to learn more about our thinking processes, which generally arise from past experiences, we begin to change the way we feel. The therapeutic journey begins by identifying reoccurring themes or what I term "addictions." The process continues by coaching clients to master their triggers and develop counter actions. It is through this process that clients are empowered to handle their life problems with more ease.

Are you finding yourself at a crossroads? Do you have a big decision to make? Do you want to learn to identify and better communicate what you need and want, in your personal life, with family, your partner, your friends, or at work? Are you struggling with painful emotions or a difficult past? Or are you simply looking for a safe space to process your thoughts and feelings as a way of engaging in self-care? If any of these questions resonate with you, I encourage you to take the next step and reach out to me. I know that deciding on a therapist can be a daunting task. Let's talk it through together.

I have experience working with adults, college students, and teens affected by grief and loss, complex trauma (abuse and neglect) and PTSD, disability, and other big life changes and challenges resulting in depression and anxiety. I believe that our inability to control what happens to us is not something to be overcome. Instead, it is the reality of life that we all live within. And this is where good, meaningful, compassionate therapy comes in.

I was inspired to name my business SPEAK counseling services because I truly believe that untreated mental health and substance abuse dependence stems from our inability to understand how it is our mind, emotions, and body is trying to speak to us. Similar to when we stub our pinky toe and we get a shot of pain ; our body will send us symptoms of anxiety, depression, recurrent dreams etc in an effort to communicate pain/discomfort. Since mental/emotional pain is a foreign and misunderstood language we often lean on behaviors that sooth It quickly (e.g addiction) this increases anxiety/depression as the pain is never truly managed.
